| Buckland | Hill R. S., Carpenter R. J. (1991) | On the basis of the palynoflora, Townrow (1965) considered the probable age of the sediment to be Eocene. This has since been refined by M. K. Macphail (personal communication), who considers the palynoflora to be late Early Eocene and more recent than that at Regatta Point. | mudstone | 55.8 - 48.6 Ma Eocene |
