The breccia remains singularly uniform in character throughout all the necks. Its basic pumice presents much resemblance to that so characteristic of the Carboniferous necks of Scotland, Derbyshire and the Isle of Man. The abundant vesicles are generally spherical, and as they have been filled with calcite or chlorite, they look like small seeds scattered through a grey paste. Though I broke hundreds of the lapilli, I did not notice among them any volcanic rock other than this pumice. I am not aware of any other neck so homogeneously filled up with one type of pyroclastic material, and certainly there is no other example known in the British Isles of so large and uniform a mass of fragmentary pumice. Limestone fragments are not uncommon in this breccia. They resemble the strata around the vents. Pieces of the adjacent cherts may also be observed. In one or two cases, the limestone fragments were found by me to have an exceptionally crystalline texture, which may possibly indicate a certain degree of marmarosis, but on the whole there is little trace of alteration. The fragments of pumice in the breccia are bound together by a cement of calcite. In fact the rock is, so to speak, saturated with calcareous material, which, besides filling up the interstices between the lapilli, has permeated the pumice and filled up such of its vesicles as are not occupied by some chloritic infiltration. I did not observe unmistakable evidence that any part of the breccia is stratified and intercalated among the limestones, nor any vestige of ashy material in these limestones. But it is possible that traces of such interstratification may occur in the low ground to the north-west of Croghan Hill, which I did not examine. In only two places did I notice even a semblance of the intercalation of limestone in the breccia. One of these is at Gorteen, where a band of limestone strata a few feet thick is underlain and overlain by breccia. But though the superposition of the layers of finely stratified dark limestone and chert on the breccia is well seen and thoroughly defined, no lapilli or ashy material are to be seen in the limestone. Detached pieces of similar limestone and chert occur in the breccia. The band of stratified rock, if _in situ_, may be a tongue projecting from the wall into the body of the neck, like some instances already cited from Scotland, but more probably it is really a large included mass lying within the vent itself. The breccia here as elsewhere is entirely without any trace of stratification. The second locality occurs at the most easterly neck north of Coole House, where the limestones, rapidly undulating, seem at last to plunge below the breccia, which shows a series of parallel divisional planes suggestive of bedding. But these may be only joint-structures, for there is no stratification of the component materials of the rock.
