The subcrustal structure beneath the Kanto plain was studied by geological and gravity data. Bouguer gravity anomalies were corrected by the thicknesses of the sedimentaly layers, and then Bouguer gravity anomalies were reduced to the basement. This correction coresponds to the Bouguer's correction.The reduced gravity anomaly represents the structure under the basement if the thicknesses of the sedimentaly layers are correct. But the depthes of the basements (the thicknesses of the sedimentaly layers) are not always so correctly measured that the reduced gravity anomalies will represent the structure beneath the basement and the structure of the basement as well.The reduced gravity anomaly map shows that the high gravity belt, or the anomalous gravity gradiant zone exists along the north side of the Tama-gawa river and the low garvity zone exists north side of the high gravity belt around the Sayama hill.These gravity anomalies also show that the geological tectonic line (the fault) lies along the north side of the Tama-gawa river with the drop in its north-east side near the Sayama hill. This fault passes the western part of Tokyo from north-west to south-east.
