Extract

At the Glen-Parva Brickworks, Wigston, near Leicester, is the finest section of the Rhætic beds that is to be seen in the Midlands. The large subcircular pit where the beds are displayd at once arrests the attention of the traveller on the adjacent railway as an excavation of more than usual size.
