Abstract
The continental slope between Brittany and Ireland is steep and cut by many canyons, with the exception of the central region which forms a broad smooth spur. Scarps up to 110 miles in length are associated with the continental margin, and these, together with the steep areas of the slope proper are considered very probably to have been developed by faulting. Cores and bottom samples from the area are shown mainly to represent Recent and Pleistocene deposits, with the exception of three which represent Tertiary and possibly Cretaceous strata. New names applied to topographic features in the area are: Meriadzek Terrace, Goban Spur, and Pendragon Scarp.
