Coastal areas of England encounter some mass movements, especially since it rains quite frequently near the shore. There is not much history of mass movements occurring in the UK because the soil is healthier because of a combination of mass amounts of rain and sunlight that it receives yearly. There are very few mass movements that have occurred along the England shore. Some background information about the shorelines of England and why the mass movements don't occur as much is because "t he scree fragments move downhill under gravity, with new pebbles and boulders being added each year... the slopes extend out beneath the lake (England’s deepest), which was itself formed by glacial erosion during the Ice Ages that ended about 10,000 years ago." The mass movements do not occur much anymore like it used to thousands of years ago because the slops extend under England's deepest lake which is rock solid. Within that setting of the lake "t he rocks here are volcanic...
