The Bunter and Keuper formations of the Trias are very fully developed in the country around Liverpool, and leaving out of consideration the Red Marl, both of these formations seem to be thicker there than anywhere else in Great Britain. The object of this paper is to give a few notes recording the thickness of the Trias, the structure of the various sandstones of which it is composed, and the character of the included pebbles, many of which are of local derivation.
Read at the British Association, Leeds, September, 1890.
