AbstractThe results of 64 till fabric analyses taken from three superposed tills are described. Analysis of the fabric of the basal till shows that Highland ice moved across the Lothians from W to E. Over some parts of the district, the basal till is covered by the intermediate till. The consistent regional fabric pattern of this till indicates Southern Uplands ice-movement from SW to NE. Finally the uppermost or Roslin till is seen to represent a minor readvance probably from the north.The present till fabric results from the basal till agree closely with the classical nineteenth century fabric analyses carried out around Edinburgh.
