Killiney till: Part of the cliff near Killiney Dart Station, Co. Dublin.
This cliff is composed of boulder clay or till that dates from the last Ice Age. The material making up the cliff is a mix of little-sorted clay, sand and boulders that was deposited here by ice moving down the Irish Sea. Cliffs with a similar composition, and just as liable to erosion, can be found north of Greystones, Co. Wicklow, and along parts of the coastline of County Wexford.
