Excerpt from The Geology of the London District, Being the Area Included in the Four Sheets of the Special Map of London The great cost of the hand-coloured edition of the one-inch Geological Map of London and its Environs having made it desirable to issue a less expensive map, the present colour-printed edition, covering almost the same area, was published in four sheets in 1903. Though largely founded on the work of Mr. Whitaker and his colleagues, as depicted on the earlier map, the new sheets include the results of a six-inch survey of parts of the Thames Valley, made in 1902 by Mr. T. I. Pocock and Mr. J. Allen Howe. Mr. Woodward, who had taken part in the original Drift Survey of the area, superintended the progress of the new work, but owing to the pressure of other duties, was unable to write the necessary descriptive memoir during his official connection with the Survey. He very kindly volunteered to do this after his retirement, and the present volume is the result. "The Guide to the Geology of London and the Neighbourhood," prepared by Mr. Whitaker and published in 1875, dealt with the area contained in the older map of London and its Environs. This work reached its sixth edition in 1901 and is now out of print. The present memoir describes the slightly smaller area embraced in the new map. While avoiding local detail, the author discusses generally the characters of the geological formations, and summarises the most recent views on the various problems presented by them. For this purpose he has revisited many parts of the area, and has also taken the opportunity to collect records of new sections. No one can write on the geology of the neighbourhood of London without being indebted to the work of the late Sir J. Prestwich and of Mr. Whitaker. In the early memoir on "The Geology of the London Basin," and in the two volumes on "The Geology of London," Mr. Whitaker not only recorded all the facts gathered during the progress of the Geological Survey, but dealt fully with the observations of other geologists, adding his own criticism on divergent views. During the twenty years which have elapsed since the publication of the Geology of London much has been added to our knowledge, especially of the Plateau Drifts and the deposits of the Thames Valley, by the labours of Mr. M. A. C. Hinton, Mr. T. V. Holmes, Mr. A. S. Kennard, Mr. H. W. Monckton, Mr. E. T. Newton, Dr. A. E. Salter, Mr. S. H. Warren, and Mr. B. B. Woodward. The Chalk, during the same period, has been more particularly the subject of investigation by Mr. G. E. Dibley and Mr. G. W. Young. Though no effort has been spared by Mr. Woodward to acknowledge the sources of information, it has proved to be impossible to do justice to the voluminous literature within the limits of so small a memoir.

Excerpt from Memoirs of the Geological Survey; England and Wales, Vol. 1: The Geology of London, and of Part of the Thames Valley, Explanation of Sheets 1, 2, and 7 The Geology of the London Basin. The Appendices of Borings and of Sections seen in London foundations, as well as thedescriptions of the ancient rocks revealed by deep borings below the Secondary formations of London are new. Many and exten sive additions have likewise been made to those portions which have already appeared in former Memoirs. In particular, the Appendix of Well-sections has been greatly augmented, and as it now appears can hardly fail to be still more useful than heretofore in questions of water-supply and drainage, wherein the practical value of such details is now everywhere recognized.
