"The Devil's Dyke," a classic Chalk Dry Valley in the South Downs, north of Brighton. Image taken from west of Saddlescombe Farm, West Sussex, England.
Commentary. Dry chalk valleys like this are common in the North and South Downs. They are evidence of a time when the water-table was much higher. Vast quantities of melt-water will have poured down these hills, off ice-caps whose southerly edge fringed the London Basin, ten to twelve thousand years ago. This winding, deep-cut combe looks as though it may have been chiselled out by the Devil himself. Actually, sheep have done more to distinguish some key features of these hills. Their relentless chomping steadily reduced the wooded bluffs as they consumed saplings as well as grass. Now the lush turf bears Bee Orchids, Skylarks, Fallow Deer and Roman Snails instead of Beech, Yew and Ash forests, making for the smooth-lined Downs of this National Park.
