...N. F. Large; B. W. Sparks Abstract A molluscan fauna typical of cold conditions has been found in the Cainscross terrace of the Frome river valley near Stroud, Gloucestershire, western England. The lithology and vertebrate fauna confirm the postulation of a cold environment. The age is probably...

...A. F. VELEGRAKIS; J. K. DIX; M. B. COLLINS Abstract Geological evidence suggests that during the Late Quaternary, a river system (the Solent River) drained a large part of central Southern England. Its upper reaches flowed in a west-east direction, flanked to the south by a Chalk ridge (the Purbeck...

...W. I. Ausich; T. W.

Five lithofacies were recognized: mudstone, siltstone, heterolithic, sandstone and intraformational conglomerate (1–5...
