  • Jinder Ubhi Dear Sadiq Khan, I Have Consulted with Members of The
    Jinder Ubhi From: Laurie Baker Sent: 27 February 2018 19:38 To: Londonplan Cc: Peter Heath Subject: New draft London Plan Dear Sadiq Khan, I have consulted with members of the London Geodiversity Partnership (LGP) and these are the comments of the Partnership on the geodiversity aspects of the draft London Plan: Comments on Policy G9 Geodiversity In general there is an improvement on this section of the previous London Plan. Policy G9 is divided into two parts. On Development Plans, Part A, 1) and 2) are identical to the previous wording; do you see the previous reference to London’s Foundations as superfluous in the policy. For development proposals, Part B says “where relevant” but this is unnecessary. In B 2), developments should also protect SSSIs. In paragraph 8.9.2, when referring to SSSIs it should say “Interest” not “Importance” The paragraph states that “London’s geodiversity Sites are shown in Figure 8.1”. However, it says “National/Regional Geodiversity Importance” and the LGP would like SSSIs to be shown. (Peter: Does the map layer I sent you from Natural England work for you?) As they are part of the Plan, LGP would like LIGS also to appear (with correct LF numbers) on figure 8.1. On Figure 8.1, although it says the reference numbers come from SPG 2012, they bear no relation to London’s Foundations. The numbering of sites in LF should be used. In the table below, I have tried to allocate the number given in figure 8.1 to show the problem. I have tabulated the sites below, with the new sites 60‐72 marked with red numbers.

  • 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.

  • Annual Review on Previous Action Plan
    London Geodiversity Action Plan 2014-2018 Progress in implementing the London GAP as at March 2019 This report details the progress made by the London Geodiversity Partnership in implementing the London geodiversity action plan 2014-2018, including the activities of individual Partners, as discussed at the Plenary Meeting of the Partnership on 22 March 2019. Objective 1: Increase our understanding of the geodiversity of London 1.1 Processed four candidate LIGS (Springwell Farm GLA 74, Watts Common GLA 75, Rockingham Anomaly GLA 76 (upgraded from SGI), Park Hill Chalk Pit, Carshalton GLA 77). Several new sites were visited: some will be added to the next tranche of SGIs. Ideas for at least one other will be considered for LIGS status (Wandsworth Common). 1.2 List of partners on website was updated. 1.3 Overground Underground public meeting held in University College in September to assist development of the next London GAP, 2019-2024. 1.4 Partnership asking Natural England to prioritise publication of the scoping study on links between park and garden design and geodiversity. Objective 2: Manage and conserve the geodiversity of London 2.1 The four candidate LIGS agreed are to be added to LGP website and details will be sent to appropriate local authority and land owners The boundary in the entry for GLA 22 (Keston Common) is in the process of revision to include Darwin’s Bog (for inclusion in the revised London’s Foundations). Partnership is working with London Wildlife Trust to interpret New Cross Cutting and Grove Park residents to establish a Geotrail. 2.2 Inspected 21 sites previously identified as SSSI/RIGS/LIGS (GLA 1, 2, 3, 4, 7, 9, 14, 18, 26, 29, 35, 38, 41, 42, 44, 55, 58, 61, 63, 64, and 73).

  • Reconstructing a Palaeolithic Landscape
    Royal Holloway, University of London Department of Geography London before London: Reconstructing a Palaeolithic Landscape Caroline Juby Thesis submitted for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy September 2011 Declaration of Authorship This thesis presents the results of original research undertaken by the author. Where the work of others has been consulted it is clearly specified and acknowledged. Signed: Date: Picture, Front Page: Reconstruction by Norman Fahy. From Robinson and Litherland (1996) 2 Abstract: London before London: Reconstructing a Palaeolithic Landscape Central London and its suburbs have produced a spectacular diversity of Palaeolithic artefacts in association with some of the most important palaeoenvironmental information in western Europe for the Pleistocene period. During the 19th and 20th centuries, London’s rapid urban development coincided with the beginnings of Palaeolithic research and a new-found interest in the antiquity of humans and ancient landscapes. Contemporary antiquarians amassed extensive collections of artefacts and fossils as gravel extraction and construction occurred on an unprecedented scale. Nevertheless, in recent times, London has experienced a significant decline in research into its Palaeolithic heritage, at the expense of other parts of the Thames valley and southern England. However, thanks to the extraordinarily rich repository of antiquarian artefacts and faunal remains, new interpretations are now possible and these collections form the basis for the work presented here. Through the re-evaluation of over 16,400 artefacts and 4700 faunal remains from multiple localities (ranging from individual findspots to ‘super sites’), the thesis explores the timing and nature of Palaeolithic occupation of London and its suburbs from the very earliest evidence in the Middle Pleistocene to the end of the last glaciation through a series of discrete time slices.
