Abstract

A description of the Ingletonian Series is given, with special reference to the sedimentary structures which occur and their use in determining the nature of the folding of the beds; this is shown to be isoclinal. The age of the series is discussed, and it is considered to be in all probability Pre-Cambrian.

Since this paper was written we have learnt that Dr. G. Bond has been working on the Ingletonian and has reached conclusions similar to our own. He has kindly withdrawn his claims in our favour.
