	Morphological Notes
	Ap	1st layer  -  Platy structure.
	B2	4th layer  -  Gritty sandy clay. Gritty sandy clay.
	Coffee Rock fizzes. 80-140cm

	Site Notes
	roots penetrate as far as coffee rock.  All layers are quite porous.  No sign of any clay cutans. Coffee rock appears friable and platey.  Iron 
	straining and free carbonates.
