T. M. READE ON RIPPLE-MARKS IN DRIFT. 267
17. EiPPLE-MARKs in Drift in Shropshire and Cheshire. By
T. Mellaed Eeaue, Esq., C.E., E.G.S. (Read February 20, 1884.)
Among- all the published notices of drift deposits that I have read, I
cannot call to mind any description of ripple-marks as forming
features in that formation*. Of course if the drift was formed
under land-ice we should not expect to see them; but if, as I
maintain, a very large part of it has been laid down in water, then,
under favourable conditions, they should be found.
I was much pleased on examining,in the early part of 1883, a section
in the Old-Park-Pield sand-hole, at Ketley, near Wellington, Shrop-
shire (to which I had been directed by my friend Dr. Callaway), to
notice in a stratified deposit of drift-sand three distinct beds of ripple-
marked laminae, most beautifully displayed in section. The following
is a sketch of the deposit (fig. 1). The position of this sand-pit is

on the south side of Watling Street. I measured one of the ripple-
marks in bed No. 1, and found it was 9 inches from crest to

Public domain

This work is in the public domain in its country of origin and other countries and areas where the copyright term is the author's life plus 70 years or fewer.

This work is in the public domain in the United States because it was published (or registered with the U.S. Copyright Office) before January 1, 1929.

This file has been identified as being free of known restrictions under copyright law, including all related and neighboring rights.

This tag is designed for use where there may be a need to assert that any enhancements (eg brightness, contrast, colour-matching, sharpening) are in themselves insufficiently creative to generate a new copyright. It can be used where it is unknown whether any enhancements have been made, as well as when the enhancements are clear but insufficient. For known raw unenhanced scans you can use an appropriate {{PD-old}} tag instead. For usage, see Commons:When to use the PD-scan tag.

Note: This tag applies to scans and photocopies only. For photographs of public domain originals taken from afar, {{PD-Art}} may be applicable. See Commons:When to use the PD-Art tag.
