Devil’s Dyke National Trust - The 300-foot-deep valley was formed by massive amounts of water flowing off the Downs during the last Ice Age when significant snow thawed and the frozen chalk prevented further absorption; erosion was enhanced by the freeze-thaw cycle, deepening the valley through the ‘sludging’ of the saturated chalk.
The Devil’s Dyke V-shaped dry valley is a result of solifluction and river erosion. Over 14,000 years ago, the area experienced an extremely cold climate (though not glacial conditions). Snowfields covered the South Downs. Permafrost conditions meant the chalk was permanently frozen. In summer, the snowfields melted, saturating the topsoil, as the water could not penetrate the frozen chalk beneath. Waterlogged material above the permafrost slid down the slope, removing material by friction and exposing deeper layers of frozen chalk.
Visit Devils Dyke Pub for a refreshment.
