Abstract
THE fourth annual report, for 1934, of this Survey shows that great progress has been made. Of the field work, only about ten per cent of the total area of Great Britain has still to be done. The uncompleted areas are mainly in Sutherland, part of the Southern Uplands, the northern and eastern parts of the West Riding, central and southern Wales, and parts of Wiltshire and Cornwall. In preparation of the six-inch sheets for publication, which entails reduction to a one-inch scale, much progress has also been made. Twelve sheets have been published, seven others are in the press and twenty more have been reduced. Further progress has been delayed solely by lack of funds. For many of the sheets published or in process of publication grants, guarantees or advance orders have been obtained, and the Survey is anxious to obtain further help of this kind. The Survey is planning a series of handbooks to accompany the published sheets.
