Notice is given of the discovery of two reports and an accompanying ma
nuscript map by Andrew Ramsay, on the geology of the St David's area,
Pembrokeshire. This adds to previously published information on early
geological work in this important region: Ramsay's report(s) throw(s)
some light on his attitude towards Murchison's ideas on Welsh stratigr
aphy. The map is the earliest known version of the Survey's St David's
sheet.
