Summary[edit]

Description
English: Chalk rafts at the base of Wood Hill. The white chalk rafts seen in the cliff section on the approach to and directly below Wood Hill were shaped by ice, raising up to 40 metres above beach level. The chalk is composed of calcium carbonate from the remains of microscopic marine organisms that once lived in a warm shallow sea which covered this area between 62 and 132 million years ago.
