Description Line of harder rock is clearly visible in this picture (Feb 08) a quarter of the way down Carmarthen Fan northern slope.
When the ice retreated north from the Beacons, much of this material will have been deposited on the lower levels - presumably it will have withstood erosion down there in the same way as it has on the slopes?
Will this not explain the many layered stones doted around north of the ridges?
