Geography field trip

Last week the upper school students (Elder class, age 14-16) had a day of field trips to look at physical evidence of some of the geomorphological processes which shape the surface of the earth. So they visited the glacial depositional feature (“esker”) of Wiveton Downs, and then Blakeney where extensive deposition from marine processes is in evidence, and finally the cliffs of Happisburgh (pictured), from which vast quantities of sand are eroded by the sea, at the cost of properties on the cliff tops.
