COAL-MEASURES.
61
Still farther north, about the Brown Hills, we have the following section:—
| FT. | FT. | |
| Yard coals | 3 | |
| Fire-clay | 5 | |
| Rock | 40 | |
| Bass coal | 6 | |
| 45 | 9 |
In this part, though only removed a very few miles from the Willenhall and Bentley district, the terms New mine, &c, are entirely unknown, and the identity of the Yard coal and Bass coal with the New mine quite unsuspected[1] (see Vertical Sections, sheet 26, Nos. 41, 42, 43, and 46).
- ↑ The real fact is, that the colliers of each small district neither know anything, nor care to know anything beyond the bounds of their own small locality, and those of Willenhall and the Brown Hills are thus reciprocally ignorant of each other's terms.
