Folkestone, Dover Hill: mollusc-rich slopewash deposits and buried Late Glacial palaeosol, investigated by Kerney in 1959 (1, 2); calcareous Coombe deposits rich in molluscs, which represent a restricted open-country fauna dominated by Pupilla, Vallonia and Abida, with the column including a change in relative proportions indicative of climatic improvement, and attributed to the Allerod Oscillation (Zone II). Fragmentary charcoal remains were common in the palaeosol, some of which were identified as juniper and birch.
