The exposure includes root systems and the lower parts of the tree bole.

The peat exposure with the larger sections of tree looking northwards

Some of the larger sections of trees that are visible and with differentiation between the peat and alluvial depsosits marked by the changing colours of the soils.

The three deposits - silty clay and peat overlain another layer of alluvial deposits (?). The surface of the peat includes many small twigs and branches being abraided by wave action.

Two of the larger sections of tree, possibly insitu, but perhaps more likely to have been dislodged and washed up.

The exposure extends for some 50m with larger dislodged parts of trees washed up to the south near new stabilisation piling.

Peat deposit beginning to appear in front of the stabilisation piling for the shingle/cobble ridge.

Cross-section of the stratigraphy of the soft cliffs which begin to rise just to the south of the site.
