This large sandstone outcrop lies at the top of the Keresley Member. It is also known as Corley Cutting. It is a coarse sandstone containing some pebbly beds. These pebbles are worn and rounded indicating perhaps a long period of travel. Also in evidence was channel-cutting and cross-bedding suggesting perhaps a deltaic environment. Brian added that Silurian fossils had been found in the limestone pebbles and this had led to the view that one source was Dudley area, some distance to the west. |
