Geology of the Country Around Sudbury (Suffolk): Memoir for 1:50 000 Geological Sheet 206 (England and Wales) (Geological Memoirs & Sheet Explanations (England & Wales)) Book

Geology, at first glance, appears to be of minor importance as an influence on the scenery and on industry other than agriculture. However, it is the primary control on the nature and distribution of two major resources, aggregate and groundwater. The district is blanketed by a thick cover of glacial clay till.
