Caption: Blackborough Carstone Pit. Looking N.
Description: Blackborough Carstone Pit. Looking N. Junction of Carstone and Leziate Beds. Loose brown pebbly sand (basal Carstone) up to 1 foot thick resting on an irregular eroded surface of white sands (Leziate Beds - topmost member of the Sandringham Sands). Vertical worm burrows infilled with coarse brown sand extend downwards into the white sands, from the erosion surface, for as much as 3 feet. Wind erosion has removed some of the white sands leaving the better-cemented sand infill at the worm burrows.
