The UK in the Last Ice Age Flashcards

All 3 cards in this deck

True or false? Ice covered the whole of the British Isles at the maximum extent of the last ice age.: False. At its maximum the ice reached only about as far south as South Wales and the Midlands; southern England stayed ice-free.
Roughly how long ago did ice reach its maximum extent across the UK in the last ice age?: About 20,000 years ago.
True or false? Glaciers are still found in the UK's highest uplands today.: False. The UK has no glaciers today; its glacial landforms were made by ice that has since melted. Some snow patches in the Scottish Highlands can survive through summer, but they are not glaciers.
