A note on the Birchi Beds, Lower Jurassic, at Lyme Regis, Dorset

Abstract

The chronic repetition of a small graphical error, initiated by H. B. Woodward and depicting the Birchi Beds (Lower Jurassic) dipping beneath Lyme Regis, needs rectifying since, by implication, it leads to a gross stratigraphical and structural error amounting to about 21 m (70 ft) at Lyme Regis, Dorset.
