Abstract
In the Geological Magazine for July last the Rev. W. Andrews and Mr. Jukes-Browne gave an account of Lower Cretaceous strata in the Vale of Wardour. I can bear testimony to the correctness of this statement. Many years ago, when geologizing in the vale chiefly among the Purbecks, I found many portions of ironstone and hard ferruginous sandstone, in the fields and by the roadside both at Dinton, Teffont and especially at Chilmark, containing casts of Cyrena, Turritella, and a part of a dermal scute of a Saurian, which I believe belong to the Lower Greensand, but I never saw it in situ, and it seems to have been greatly denuded.
