the Waveney and Yare extended, which, having been filled in with the Upper and Middle Glacial, has not been re-excavated, remaining as a low tableland, of which the cliff between Covehithe and Lowestoft forms the natural section. It is in the centre of this trough, thus intersected by the cliff, that the well-known Kessingland deposit lies, occupying at that point a shallow valley excavated out of the Chillesford Clay and Lower Glacial sands, as the sections which accompany the separate paper by one of us on the Kessingland -Cliff section show (see p. 135). We subjoin a small sketch map to make this description more intelligible.

The unshaded parts by the rivers are occupied by recent alluvium.
The broken lines on either side of Pakefield and Kessingland cliffs indicate the supposed continuation of the interglacial valley of the Waveney.
The two lines across rivers are those of sections XV. & XVI.
N.B. At the point marked with a cross a little way S.W. of Lowestoft, and about 10 furlongs inland from Pakefield Cliff, there occurs on low ground an excavation in mottled brick-earth resembling the Mammalian bed of Kessingland Cliff; but we are not aware whether it be that bed or the Contorted Drift.
If these views are right, there seems reason for suspecting that this Kessingland bed, containing mammalian remains and rootlets (which is directly overlain by the Middle Glacial), may belong to the period of interglacial valley-excavation we have been discussing.
The Lower Glacial beds of Easton and Covehithe cliffs, and those
