This latest memoir chronicles the geology of the Kingston-upon-Hull and Brigg areas of Humberside and north Lincolnshire, an area renowned for its natural resources. This new data, derived from comprehensive surveying of fully cored boreholes, should enable a better assessment of the existing resources of the region and will facilitate land-use planning. In addition a clearer understanding of the Quaternary succession giving a more complete picture of climatic and relative sea-level change over the past 2 million years will aid forecasting of the likely impact on Britain of future global change.

The area described in this memoir forms the southern part of the Vale of York - a low-lying, largely drift-covered tract. The area, although rather featureless in scenic terms, is of considerable geological interest and economic importance. This memoir provides insights into the impact of climate change in the past, and also documents the significant impact that man has had on the landscape of the region.
