That's not uncommon. East Anglia is geologically something that makes
that almost the norm! Over the past few million years, it has been
built up from sea bed sand, alluvial detritus, glacial moraine, peat
accumulation, lake and river bed sand, ooze and clay and God alone
knows what else. The layers are often only a foot or so thick, and
area easy to wash away.

Much of it has chalk underneath, but the surface is a right mixture.
