Norfolk Soils

Norfolk has interesting soil diversity derived from the action of living things and weathering processes on its complex of bedrock and superficial deposits.

Norfolk soils are mapped as 47 associations based on technical descriptions.  For public outreach purposes these have been published as Soilscapes, which are mapped on the Soilscapes Viewer.  There is often a clear correspondence between Associations and Soilscapes, for example, Isleham 2 association is SS 23.
