Abstract

AbstractA deep borehole has recently been drilled in search of oil and natural gas near Croxteth Park, Liverpool. The borehole penetrated Recent and Glacial deposits and a minimum of 1,306 ft. of Permo‐Triassic sandstones before crossing the large Croxteth Fault and entering rocks of the Millstone Grit Series. Thereafter, a sequence of strata extending from almost the top of the Millstone Grit down to beds in the upper part of the Carboniferous Limestone Series has been proved for the first time in the area. The limestones have yielded a large fauna.
