  • English Nature Research Report
    Vatural Area: 33. East Anglian Plain Geological Sigaificance: Outstanding (provisional) General geological character: The solid geology of the East Anglian Natural Area is mainly underlain by Jpper Cretaceous chalk. This very pure limestone was laid down on the floor of a tropical sea between 97 md 74 Ma. Locally the chalk is rich in fossils including sea-urchins and bivalves. Overlying much of the ;halk is a complex sequence of Quaternary deposits (deposited over the last 2 Ma) showing changes in Aimate and environment from both cold (glacial) and temperate (interglacial) periods. These sediments hostcompletely obscure the underlying chalk and it is their composition which gives the Natural Area its :haacter. The base of the Quaternary sequence is the early Pleistocene Crag deposits which are marine jcdiments of*shelly muds and sands, often containing temperate marinc molluscan faunas. However, the nost extensive and thickest Quaternary sediments consist of glacial sands, gravels and clays deposited by the 4nglian ice sheet as it advanced across the area around 300,000 to 250,000 years BP. These deposits are ;ollectivcly known as 'boulder clay' and their calcareous nature reflects glacial erosion and transportation of he chalk bedrock beneath. The Anglian glaciation interrupted a well-developed fluvial network of eastward flowing rivers, and patches of these preglacial river gravels are still found within the area. Many localitites show river gravels related to the early development of the River Thames, which crossed this area prior to jiversion by the Anglian ice sheet. These sites are important for Quaternary stratigraphy (including records Jf climate change) because they can be correlated with sedirnents in other parts of Britain and abroad.

North Kent Plain Area profile: Supporting documents Introduction National Character Areas map As part of Natural England’s responsibilities as set out in the Natural Environment 1 2 3 White Paper , Biodiversity 2020 and the European Landscape Convention , we North are revising profiles for England’s 159 National Character Areas (NCAs). These are East areas that share similar landscape characteristics, and which follow natural lines in the landscape rather than administrative boundaries, making them a good Yorkshire decision-making framework for the natural environment. & The North Humber NCA profiles are guidance documents which can help communities to inform their West decision-making about the places that they live in and care for. The information they contain will support the planning of conservation initiatives at a landscape East scale, inform the delivery of Nature Improvement Areas and encourage broader Midlands partnership working through Local Nature Partnerships. The profiles will also help West Midlands to inform choices about how land is managed and can change. East of England Each profile includes a description of the natural and cultural features that shape our landscapes, how the landscape has changed over time, the current key London drivers for ongoing change, and a broad analysis of each area’s characteristics and ecosystem services. Statements of Environmental Opportunity (SEOs) are South East suggested, which draw on this integrated information. The SEOs offer guidance South West on the critical issues, which could help to achieve sustainable growth and a more secure environmental future.
