Abstract
WE must not be tempted at the moment, I think, into a discussion of the meaning and implications of ‘interglacial’—a matter which now seems to be running full circle. The purpose of my communication was not to state a case for the preglacial age or other age of the Cromer Forest Bed, but to prevent a brief and easily quotable statement to the effect that “it was formed in the oldest interglacial period in East Anglia” (or, for that matter, a title like that of their present communication) being copied from paper to text-book and book to paper without mention of the fact that other evidence does not support the statement.
