We next continued to Llychydys Loc No 2 and No 1.
We searched three hours and found no Helminthozoa on any of the rocks that were remotely beautiful in aspect or worthy to be photographed.
The rock here is again a three-ply thin red-bellied dyke, much torn and filled with quartz filling. The surface weathers into a very irregular surface made also of slate and chalk. It has areas of interlaminating gel that weather not as chalk. Saw a little of Cryptogrona.
A little farther N.E. of Loc 2 Clentham found a place inhabited by Clarkella, an orthid, and we saw a tail of a trilobite and another trilobite (?) for a Scorpion. All are with Canthinia.
The dyke on top of the CATTLE is a three-ply, yellow and weathering which reddened areas. It dips 40° to the E., and lies upon Highgate Sandstone slate. The Highgate slate makes up more to the "CATTLE" and extends over a long distance. In places the slate is in folds that throw over again onto the schistosity 35°; throws the same under the Cattle to the north-north-west towards 700 E. The thickness appears to be greater but this may be due to greater folding.
