Summary

1. The direction of the ridge is roughly parallel to the line of the moraine in Holderness as sketched by Carvill Lewis. 2. The material of the gravels is ice-collected, but is well waterworn though not rounded. The bulk of the pebbles are of northeastern England and Yorkshire origin, and a small proportion of Scandinavian rocks is present. 3. The stratification is horizontal and current bedding is frequent. 4. There is no seasonal banding nor any alternations of broad and narrow parts along the length of the ridge.
