The paper was presented at the Association’s 23rd July, 1913 Buckfastleigh meeting. There is great deal of professional literature on the raised beaches of Tor Bay since they occupy a critical position in the Quaternary stratigraphy of southwest Britain. Scientific debate on the topic has at times been contentious, strenuous, even robust, and this rather bad-tempered paper is an example. For the genealogist, however, it is a treasure trove of the geologists, cartographers, academics and “leading authorities”, all with an interest in the early geology of our county.  Mr Hunt’s paper can be found in a copy of a rare and much sought-after journal that can be downloaded from the Internet Archive.
