The Leintwardine and Whitcliffe Beds of the Ludlow Series outcropping at Tites Point and near Newnham, Gloucestershire, are described and compared with similar beds exposed at May Hill. Data from the Brookend Borehole, 1 ½ miles (2.41 km) south of Tites Point, reveal that southward thickening affects all subdivisions of the Ludlow Series. The occurrence of the Ludlow Bone Bed in the Tites Point outcrop is also recorded.
