Extract

It is attempted in the accompanying diagram (Plate II.) to exhibit, as clearly as is possible in a single section, the local chronological arrangement and position of the more remarkable Cretaceous deposits between Folkestone and Guildford, and also their probable correlation with the same series in the Isle of Wight and the vicinity of Lyme Regis. The diagram therefore represents an ideal section of the Cretaceous series from Folkestone in Kent to Lyme Regis in Dorsetshire, exhibiting at a glance the relative positions of the strata in the order of their deposition, but without allowing for variation in thickness or possible want of conformity in stratification.
