Immediately adjacent to the mud-flats bed, largely in a north-easterly direction, is the more extensive 'peat' bed of the QSM (QSM II of this paper, or Layer E2 of Dingle et al. 1979). These black, carbonaceous sands and clays represent a marsh deposit. Their fossil content has yet to be analysed in detail, but they are rich in both pollens and vertebrate fossils. They were briefly discussed by Hendey (1976a: 225-226) and Rich (1980)..
