SU36:

Anthropogenic deposits are revealed in a recently cut section along the coast. The section face stands up to 4m high and comprises mainly windblown sand. The anthropogenic deposits occur towards the middle of the section and extend for up to 50m in length. They undulate, suggesting that they were laid down over an uneven dune surface. They comprise a band of often densely packed shell and bone up to 0.2m thick. The shell includes limpet and winkel. The bone includes mammal and whale bone.
