A few goniatites and theavicula pecten are sometimes found in the roof of thesmall seams of grit coal. Dendritic deposits with fucoid-like impressions may also be observed in the Teggsnoseand other quarries. The first, second, fourth and fifthbeds of grit appear to be barren of fossils. The shalesof the Yoredale rocks in Hollin Lane, yield calamitesand obscure traces of other plants, and among the thinblack shales in the upper quarries of the same rocks atRatcliffe Wood, are found calamites and the aviculapecten. Having hitherto confined my observations chiefly toa general description, physical and geological, of thecountry east of the red rock fault, I will now refer to. STONE C ELT.
