Abstract
Loch Lomond in Scotland was part of the sea not only in late Devensian times but also in the middle Flandrian. Deep water cores from the southern basin show sediment with marine plankton and low remanent magnetism (RMN) between freshwater sediments. Raised beaches, deltas and estuarine flats were formed during the Flandrian transgression which 14C dating shows to have to lasted some 1,450 yr from 6,900 to 5,450 yr BP. Palaeomagnetic matching enables an intercomparison of Windermere and Lomond 14C timescales and implies that both may be in error.
