Types of Materials found in Rowlands Gill

Rowlands Gill sits in the Derwent Valley, where the underlying Coal Measures sandstone and shale bedrock is typical of the wider North East coalfield, historically mined in this area. Above this bedrock, most residential ground is glacial boulder clay, which holds water and can drain slowly after sustained rain. Ground closer to the River Derwent itself can be softer, with alluvial deposits typical of the valley floor, while higher ground away from the river tends to be firmer.
