I have only ever noticed one constant in the superficial deposits of south west Cleveland , that is a definite relationship in colour with the red and blue Triassic Bed rock it sits above , although the superficial surface deposits are highly calcareous .
I have now viewed more new build sites between Redcar and Yarm with exactly the same findings , No Boulder Clay !
