The significance of the inter‐stratified tills exposed in the Weybourne area of North Norfolk has
attracted much attention and various scenarios have been proposed for their development (Banham
and Ranson, 1965; Bowen et al., 1986; Fish et al., 2000; Pawley et al., 2004; Hart, 2007). This debate
highlights the ambiguity of interpreting inter‐stratified till sequences where the mechanisms
proposed range from: (1) the confluence of different ice sheets (Ehlers and Gibbard, 1991; Lunkka,
1994); a sedimentary ‘melt‐out’ origin (Haldorsen and Shaw, 1982) and glacitectonic processes
associated with a subglacial deforming bed (Hart et al., 1990; van der Meer et al., 2003; Menzies et
al., 2006).
