The Cleveland dyke at Stainton village south west Middlesbrough.

I am now beginning to seriously believe the presence and location of the Cleveland dyke could have had a major effect on approaching ice sheets. I now think there is a possibility that the dyke could have acted as a defence against the destructive forces of the ice sheets on the geology present at the time, in the immediate vicinity of of the dyke.
I can now say with total confidence that at least the section of the Cleveland Dyke at Stainton Quarry in the south west area of Cleveland, is a strongly magnetic basaltic andasite that seems to act strangely to certain surfaces of a magnet
. And parts have been taken by what could only be ice and redistrebuted to the north and south of the line of the Cleveland Dyke, and the evidence can be found in the deep lying Stainton gravel beds, that streach from at least Stainton beck to Ormesby beck about 3 miles to the north east.
I also now strongly believe that any large or small rocks, whinstone or other to be found in the fields of this area of Cleveland origionated from the washed out  gravel beds, this i believe i can proove at least in the Stainton and Thornton area.

New excuvation showing continuation of clay and gravel bed deposits further down stream

The image below shows the  deposit discoloured by the top soil higher up.

The image above shows an isolated layer of sand and fine gravels marked by the lower glove.

I believe the deposit rises a lot higher than the level marked with top yellow glove.

Packed gravels and sand layer below the  layers then a dense red clay beneath the gravels and sands.

The isolated sand and gravel layer above apparently separating the main  deposit.

Volcanic petrified ash

Found in a lacustrine deposit at Stainton beck.

New deposits found

These images show a newly descovered  deposit in the banks of maltby beck, 1km south west of the Stainton deposits.

The blue deposit will be a lot thicker and will taper as it rises, which i will show once excuvated.

I believe this deposit could be part of the same deposit found at Stainton beck.
