Anthropogenic soils are exposed in a 2m high coastal exposure which extends for 15m. These deposits are covered with layers of blown sand, 1m in depth. The upper levels include a buried A horizon, up to 0.5m thick, covering a 0.2m layer of highly organic soil which contains inclusions of bird, fish and mammal bone, shell and small fragments of flint. Beneath, a layer of shell, mostly comprising limpet, covers an old ground surface. An amorphous rise, located in the immediate hinterland, may be a farm mound and it is probable that the deposits seen in section may be derived from this source.
