Abstract
Synopsis: Borehole evidence shows that in the western part of the Carse of Stirling there occurs a buried raised beach whose surface is between about 30 and 36 ft O.D. The beach appears to have been formed after about 10 300 B.P. and before about 9500 B.P., more probably around the latter date. The buried raised beach is normally overlain by peat and this in turn by carse clay. Over part of the area the carse clay is covered by surface peat. In two areas the carse clay is absent and thick peat occurs instead. Part of this thick peat accumulated as the carse clay was being deposited around it.
