Abstract

Historically, a wide range of stratigraphical approaches have been applied to examining the Early and Middle Pleistocene succession of northern East Anglia including conventional biostratigraphy and lithostratigraphy (Boswell, 1916; Banham, 1968; Perrin et al., 1979; West, 1980a; Bowen et al., 1986; Preece and Parfitt, 2000). Both of these approaches underpin the ‘official’ stratigraphic classification for Quaternary Deposits in the British Isles, published first in the mid-seventies (Mitchell et al., 1973), and then revised in the late-nineties (Bowen, 1999a).
