Albion Glacigenic Group

The Albion Glacigenic Group is a Quaternary lithostratigraphic group (a sequence of rock strata or other definable geological units) present in those parts of Great Britain which lie north of the southern limit of Anglian glaciation, but south of the Devensian glacial limit, and also includes deposits in the Isle of Man and offshore areas. It consists of a wide range of unconsolidated superficial deposits including till, sands, gravels, silts and clay of glacial, glaciofluvial, glaciolacustrine and glaciomarine origin. Its upper boundary is the present day ground surface or unconformable contact with units of the Caledonia Glacigenic Group, the Britannia Catchments Group or the British Coastal Deposits Group. It was previously known as the South Britain Glacigenic Group or Older Drift
