Abstract
New floral and lithological evidence from the tongue of Coal Measures extending from the Wyre Forest Coalfield into the northern part of the Abberley Chain establishes that the eastward overturning along the Malvern axis is of late- or post-Morganian age. Minor folding along this axis may have taken place prior to the deposition of the Upper Coal Measures. This, however, had little topographic effect as during the deposition of the Upper Coal Measures the northern end of the Malvern axis remained an area of relatively rapid subsidence.
