There is a peculiar band, full of Annelid borings, in the Gault of Kent, which does not appear to have been recorded in the papers on the Gault of Folkestone, by Mr. De Rance, in the Geol. Mag. 1868, Vol. V. p. 170, etc., and Mr. Price, Quart. Journ. Geol. Soc. 1874, vol. xxx. p. 344, etc. It may possibly, however, be one of the “hard bands” noticed in their sections, but not described in detail. In 1866 I collected some specimens of this Annelid Bed in a Gault pit, dug for brick- and tile-making, at Westwell Leacon, a mile and a half S.W. of Charing, Kent. It was about two inches thick, continuous across the pit, red in colour, with bluish pipings throughout in every direction; it was much harder than the blue clay above and below, and relatively heavy. There seemed to be only one band of it; and its fragments were picked out and thrown aside by the clay-diggers, who called it “Harper.”
