  • A Section of the Oxford Clay and Pleistocene Gravel in North Oxford
    A Section of the Oxford Clay and Pleistocene Gravel in North Oxford By L. W. GRENSTED HE area which gives its name to the Oxford Clay is now devoid of permanent exposures, as the various brickpits have long been closed. AlthoughT the pits once yielded many fossils, these were frequently collected from loose clay and were not recorded stratigraphically so that the precise level of their occurrence is unknown. There is, therefore, sometimes doubt as to the zones present at the various pits. More precise modern methods of zoning demand careful collecting over narrow limits of depth of strata, in order that accurate correlations may be made over wider areas and a fuller picture of rates of deposition in the' Oxford Clay' sea may be obtained. The examination of shallow localized sites has the advantage of restricting the width of band over which the fossils are collected so that there is no possibility of mixing the fossils at one level with those at another. By building up a vertical column of thickness of strata with accurate fossil marker-indices at successive levels we can estimate the thickness of the Oxford Clay in various parts of the Oxford area, and this may be of vital interest to engineers. Thus the recording of all such sites helps materially in the attempt to complete the picture. The laying of a deep drain running the whole length of Charlbury Road, Oxford, an operation which occupied almost the whole of 1952, gave an invaluable opportunity of examining a section of the Oxford Clay nearly a quarter of a mile in length and all within a very narrow horizon.
