A boring made at Tonge in Leicestershire yielded results whichappear to indicate that— (1) The throAv of the Breedon Fault may be at least SOU feet; (2) The Keuper at that locality is about 279 feet thick ; (3) The Millstone Grit was either poorly developed or much eroded before the deposition of the Trias ; (4) The Pendleside Shales died out somewhere between Tonge and Breedon, so that the Millstone Grit is locally uncon-formable upon the Cailioniferous Limestone. > Vol. xiv (1883) p. 329.
