Excerpt from The Geology of the Country Around Cromer: Explanation of Sheet 68 E
The Cromer Cliffs of the Norfolk Coast are well known to Geologists as the locality of the famous "Forest-bed" and "Contorted Drift." These interesting deposits are fully described in the following Memoir from original detailed observation. Reference to the previous literature of the "Forest-bed" will be found at p; 20.The Maps, Sections, and Memoir now published by the Geological Survey are intended to be a record of the present condition of the Cliffs and of all that is known regarding their geological history up to this date. These publications will thus, it is hoped, serve as data from which to compute the future changes of the Cliffs from the encroachment of the Sea, and to mark the additions which further research at this locality may make to our still fragmentary knowledge of the Pliocene and Pleistocene History of England.
