APPENDIX I.

Schedule of the collection of Photographs of Geological Interest, as arranged by the Committee appointed by the British Association, forwarded (in accordance with a resolution of the Council) to the Director-General of the Geological Survey, to be deposited in the Museum of Practical Geology, 28 Jermyn Street, London.

Arrangement OF THE COLLECTION of GEOLOGICAL PHotographs.

NOTE. The Committee appointed to undertake the 'collection, preservation, and systematic registration of photographs of geological interest in the United Kingdom' began its operations in 1889. During the first two years prints were received mounted on cards without restriction as to size. Afterwards, to secure uniformity, a standard mount was adopted, with perforated edges for binding in cases (size 15 x 12 inches). It was not found practicable to transfer the early portion of the collection to the standard-sized mounts in cases. The arrangement of this portion has therefore had to be made in portfolios, boxes and cases of various sizes. When the size is not stated it will be understood that the cases consist of the standard-sized mounts, measuring 15 × 12 inches.

INVENTORY.--The following are on irregular sized mounts, dimensions of the largest mounts being given below:

Stonesfield Slate.-Second Report of the Committee, consisting of Mr. H. B. WOODWARD (Chairman), Mr. E. A. WALFORD (Secretary), Professor A. H. GREEN, Dr. H. WOODWARD, and Mr. J. WINDOES, appointed to open further sections in the neighbourhood of Stonesfield in order to show the relationship of the Stonesfield slate to the underlying and overlying strata. (Drawn up by Mr. EDWIN A. WALFORD, Secretary.)

THE shaft sunk by the Committee in 1894 was reported by the workmen to be unsafe, and an unsuccessful attempt was made to find the old sinking of 1830 at Reed Hill, near Stonesfield, reported upon by Professor Ed. Hull. The work was ultimately continued upon the Stocky Bank shaft to a depth of 60 feet. At that depth it had penetrated 13 feet into one of the highest beds of the Inferior Oolite-the Clypeus-Grit (zone Ammonites Parkinsoni). It has proved the continuance not only of the compact barren limestones (sub-Bathonian) so well developed around Chipping Norton, but also of the sandy limestone beds between them and the Glypeus-Grit.

The section, as before stated, has been made by scarping a bank for about 30 feet, and by sinking a shaft to a depth of 60 feet on the step of the bank. It is practically a continuous section, only 2 or 3 feet intervening, laterally, between the ending of the one cut and the beginning of the other.
