Abstract
VARIOUS shell bodies exist in the chenier plain facies of east Essex1,2. Offshore banks are one of the more prominent types, and within these banks there is often a pronounced vertical imbrication in the surface layer of shells (Fig. 1). This exerts a stabilizing influence on the movement of the shells and shell bodies retarding, though not preventing, long term migration. Imbrication has not yet been observed in deposits of the inshore zone.
