DRAFT – FOR BGS APPROVAL THE GLOBAL DEVONIAN, CARBONIFEROUS AND PERMIAN CORRELATION PROJECT: A REVIEW OF THE CONTRIBUTION FROM GREAT BRITAIN 1 2 2 3 G. WARRINGTON , W.J. BARCLAY , B.E. LEVERIDGE AND C.N. WATERS Warrington, G., Barclay, W.J., Leveridge, B.E. and Waters, C.N. 201x. The Global Devonian, Carboniferous and Permian Correlation Project: a review of the contribution from Great Britain. Geoscience in South-West England, 13, xx-xx. A contribution on the lithostratigraphy and palaeoenvironments of Devonian, Carboniferous and Permian successions onshore in Great Britain, prepared for an international project, is summarised with particular reference to south-west England. Devonian and Carboniferous successions present in that region occur in the Rhenohercynian Tectonic Zone, to the south of the Variscan Front (VF), and their complexity reflects formation in six composite basins. They differ substantially from contemporaneous successions north of the VF. Whereas Devonian successions south of the VF are largely marine, those to the north are continental. Carboniferous successions south of the VF are predominantly marine, but shallow-water and deltaic facies occur in the highest formations. North of the VF, marine conditions were superseded by paralic and continental sedimentation. Erosion, following Variscan tectonism, resulted in the Permian successions generally resting unconformably upon older Palaeozoic rocks. In south-west England a continental succession may extend, with depositional hiatuses, from the latest Carboniferous to the Late Permian and is the most complete Permian succession in Great Britain. However, the position of the Permian–Triassic boundary in the south- west, and elsewhere in the country, is not yet resolved. -

The Evolution of the Rivers of East Devon and South Somerset, UK
R.W. Gallois THE EVOLUTION OF THE RIVERS OF EAST DEVON AND SOUTH SOMERSET , UK R.W.G ALLOIS Gallois, R.W. 2006. The evolution of the rivers of east Devon and south Somerset, UK. Geoscience in south-west England, 11 , 205-213. With the exception of the River Tone, which appears to have been separated at an early stage from its neighbours to the south by a major fault, the rivers of south Somerset and east Devon were initiated on a southward dipping Tertiary planation surface. The evolutionary histories of the present-day catchments of the rivers Exe and Otter are complex and inter-related. Those of the adjacent Axe and Teign appear to be less complex and may have evolved relatively independently from the Exe-Otter system. The differences in the histories of the catchments are most clearly demonstrated by their terrace systems. The Exe-Otter catchment has 10 or more terrace levels at heights of up to 140 m above the modern floodplain. In contrast, the Axe, Teign and Tone catchments contain only one or two terrace levels all of which are less than 20 m above the present-day valley floor. The explanation suggested here for the difference involves a sequence of river captures that changed the forerunner of the present-day Otter from a major river capable of producing a 3-km wide gravelly braidplain into a minor stream. 92 Stoke Valley Road, Exeter, EX4 5ER, U.K. (E-mail: [email protected]). INTRODUCTION The middle and lower reaches of the River Exe and the There are too few age data to determine the period of time adjacent catchments of the Axe, Otter, Teign and Tone drain an during which the terrace sequences in south-west England area with a complex topographical relief that ranges from over evolved, but comparison with the denudation chronology of 300 m above Ordnance Datum (O.D.) in the Blackdown Hills southern England as a whole suggests that all the terraces to a few metres above O.D. -

The Ancient Settlements at Harlyn Bay
The Ancient Settlements at Harlyn Bay BY O. G. S. CRAWFORD, B.A., F.S.A. HARLYN BAY is situated about the middle of the north coast of Cornwall, near Trevose Head, on the west of the estuary of the Camel, about four miles from Padstow. A number of discoveries of great archaeological importance have been made there and in the neighbouring bay of Constantine on the west; but so far no critical summary of the whole evidence in the light of recent knowledge has been attempted. The fullest account is that by the late Rev. R. Ashington Bullen (3rd edition, published at Harlyn Bay by Colonel Bellers in 19121). The site is one of considerable interest to the geologist as well as the archaeologist; and the scenery is very beautiful. The discoveries will be described in the following order : 1. The cemetery and midden at Harlyn Bay. 2. The midden on Constantine Island and on the adjacent mainland. 3. The midden and medieval remains near Constantine Church. 4. The barrows on the cliffs between Harlyn Bay and Mother Ivey's Bay. 1. The Cemetery and Midden at Harlyn Bay The cemetery was found in levelling the ground for building a house in 190c. The graves consisted of rectangular excavations in the ground, the sides being lined with upright slate slabs. They were covered with other slabs, sometimes inclined at an angle of 45° (but this is probably due to accidental slipping). The arrangement of the graves was fairly regular, and they were orientated to the present magnetic north. The bodies were buried in a crouched position, lying on the side with the knees bent up.
