CONNOLLY3 1School of Earth and Environmental Sciences, University of Greenwich, Medway Campus, Chatham Maritime, Chatham, Kent ME4 4AW, UK 2Department of Palaeontology, Natural History Museum, Cromwell Road, London SW7 5BD, UK 3Department of Geology, Imperial College, Prince Consort Road, London SW7 2BP, UK Abstract: Study of the composition and distribution of derived lithoclast and fossil suites collected from the Selsey, Barton and Becton Formations in Whitecliff Bay, Isle of Wight has enabled a detailed reconstruction of Mid–Late Eocene uplift of 500 m+ on the northern limb of the Sandown Pericline. The stratigraphical distribution of clasts and fossils derived from older formations demonstrates the erosion of progressively older Eocene, Palaeocene and Cretaceous sediments during growth of the structure. The presence of delicate reworked fossils and clasts, together with limited palaeocurrent data support very local derivation from the south. The preservational state of the derived materials is used to identify the diverse processes of erosion and transport. Two phases of uplift (Lutetian, Bartonian), separated by a period of quiescence and peneplanation have been identified; rates of Eocene uplift of about 100 m Ma"1 are postulated to have taken place. Keywords: Eocene, Structural inversion, southern England, derived fossils. The Palaeogene succession in Whitecliff Bay in the east of the septarian concretions within the Selsey Formation, and Isle of Wight has attracted geologists since the nineteenth independently, P.A.J.

It includes the settlement of Brading in the west of the Area, St Helens and Nettlestone in the north, Bembridge in the east and Yaverland in the south. Part of this Area, including Bembridge and Yaverland, was for much of its history an island in its own right, cut off from the Wight mainland by arms of the sea at high tide and muddy gulfs at low tide, hence its former name of ‘Bembridge Isle’. A wide area of sea flowed up between Bembridge and St. Helens, past Brading and Yaverland and then joined up with another branch of sea that entered through a gap between Yaverland and Sandown where the boating lake is today. The area between Yaverland and Sandown became known as the ‘Sandown Level’ after it had been drained. A further branch struck off west towards Alverstone. These tidal inlets effectively cut Bembridge Isle off from the rest of the Island until the construction of a causeway at Yar Bridge in the Middle Ages. However, Brading Haven remained as a wide tidal inlet at the mouth of the Eastern Yar River, extending as far inland as Brading, until it was drained between 1878 and 1880, leaving the much smaller area of Bembridge Harbour (Martin 2004a).

  • The Geological History of the Isle of Wight
    *Manuscript Click here to view linked References The geological history of the Isle of Wight: an overview of the ‘diamond in 1 Britain’s geological crown’ 2 3 4 Abstract 5 6 The geology of the Isle of Wight has attracted both the amateur and professional 7 geologist alike for well over two centuries. It presents a cornucopia of things 8 geological and offers a window into the fascinating story of the geological history and 9 10 landscape development of southern England, as well as an important teaching 11 resource for all levels of study from primary education through to academic research. 12 13 This paper provides a geological framework and a summary of the history of research 14 15 as context for the papers in this issue can be placed. Inevitably, it can only offer a 16 précis of the huge amount of information available, but it is hoped will also give 17 added impetus to further investigation of the literature or, indeed, new research. 18 19 The island offers a field workshop for topics such as lithostratigraphy, sequence 20 21 stratigraphy, tectonics and climate change; studies that are becoming ever more 22 international in their influence. There are 15 Sites of Special Scientific Interest 23 designated because of their geological importance and a number of these are 24 internationally significant. 25 26 27 After a brief discussion on the concealed geology, this paper concentrates on an 28 outline of the near-surface geology on the coast and inland, and introduces a different 29 view on the structure of the Cretaceous and Palaeogene strata.
