Some years it was possible to repair the road with just a thick layer of tarmac, others fresh mettle was needed! Compares with fault movement generating sediment accommodation space Click here to move on to C B

Looking SE from E Looking SE from D True amplitude of the dislocation is seen at the ‘stiff’ road, but appears to diminish in the ‘softer’ disturbed bedrock. Might hill-creep have any influence in hiding the fault? E Click here to see the dislocation from further north on the road
