This notebook contains Charles Lyell’s notes from his travels through Bristol (started in previous notebook, Number 111) and Ireland (continued in following notebook Number 113). It is dated 11-30 August 1843. Notes are in pencil and ink and are primarily field notes. The index is located in the back of the notebook on pages 113-116.

The following table of contents is Lyell's own words, copied from Lyell's own "Index", found at the beginning and end of the notebook, transcribed from digital surrogates using the platform Transkribus. When known, Lyell's abbreviations and contractions have been expanded using brackets []. When writing is unclear, and transcription is not possible, this is denoted using [...]. Quotation marks are Lyell's own notation for ditto, as is the abbreviation "do". The inclusion of [sic] indicates the misspelling of a word is deliberate and taken from the notebook.
