VI.—On the Continuity of the Kellaways Beds over Extended Areas near Bedford, and on the Extension of the Fuller's Earth Works at Woburn

Published online by Cambridge University Press:  01 May 2009

Extract

During late years, by the opening of new sections, fresh information has been obtained of the geology of different parts of the country, and several fine excavations, the result of railway enterprise, have afforded great sections of the Kellaways beds in localities where only conceptions of them previously prevailed. Gaps have been filled up, and the continuity of the beds over extended areas confirmed. The principal revelations come from the Hull and Barnsley, and from the Swindon and Cirencester railways, opened respectively about 1881 and 1883, and the works now in progress in connexion with the widening of the main line at Oakley, near Bedford.
