Norber erratic
Yorkshire, UK
The Norber erratics are Silurian grit/Greywacke boulders placed on Carboniferous Limestone pavement, deposited by ice ~15kya ago, at the end of the Devensian glaciation. These erratics are a classic site for studying glacial deposition processes and limestone denudation rates.
