Abstract

THE last British ice sheet probably reached its greatest extent 17,000–18,000 radiocarbon yr ago, when it covered much of the British Isles. We suggest here that this ice mass had disappeared 5,000 yr later. Significant new evidence comes from Loch Etteridge in the heart of the Grampian Highlands of Scotland (Fig. 1).
