In the next range of cliffs the further relation of the same beds to the Elephant-bed of Norfolk is shown. The higher part of the cliff at Kessingland is formed by the upper division of the Boulder-clay. Beneath are beds of sand with subordinate seams of small flint- gravel, which may be referred to the Boulder-clay series, though the lower part may belong to the "Westleton beds. Beneath these sands, and just on the same level as in the cliffs at Cove and Easton Bavent (two and four miles south), the Chillesford Clay crops out and ranges to near Pakefield.
