![The face of a tunnel being excavated in Lambeth Group strata for the Thames Tideway Tunnel Project in central London (courtesy of T. Newman and Thames Tideway).

The dark grey clays overlying the MLH were deposited by a marine incursion at the end of the MLH.]()
![(a) The Mid-Lambeth Group Hiatus (MLGH) exposed in the main tunnel face at Blackfriars during a TBM cutterhead intervention. Note the dark grey clay-filled burrows and the absence of calcrete within the top of the Lower Mottled Clay. (b) Gravel-sized calcrete disseminated within the Lower Mottled Clay host, observed within the main tunnel face during a TBM cutterhead inspection. (c) Layer of massive calcrete within the short connection tunnel at the Albert Embankment. This was first encountered within the shaft, which facilitated accurate measurements of the layer; this, in turn, ensured that the correct excavation plant would be available during construction of the connection tunnel. Laboratory abrasivity tests on samples of the material indicated that it was usually ‘not very’ to ‘slightly’ abrasive (Fig. 8b).]()
