Sussex Marble (original) (raw)

About DBpedia

Sussex Marble (deutsch: Sussex-Marmor), auch Petworth Marble oder Winklestone genannt, ist ein Kalkstein, der als Marmor bezeichnet wird, da er polierfähig ist und historisch so benannt wurde. Gesteinskundlich ist es kein Marmor, denn Marmore sind metamorphe (umgewandelte) Gesteine. In West Sussex entstand dieser Kalkstein im Süßwasser. Sussex-Marmor hat kunst- und bauhistorische Bedeutung für Kirchenbauten in Südengland.

Sussex-Marmor hat kunst- und bauhistorische Bedeutung für Kirchenbauten in Südengland. (de) Sussex Marble is a fossiliferous freshwater limestone material which is prevalent in the Weald Clay of parts of Kent, East Sussex and West Sussex in southeast England. It is also called Petworth Marble, Bethersden Marble or Laughton Stone in relation to villages where it was quarried, and another alternative name is winklestone. It is referred to as "marble" as it polishes very well, although it is not a true marble, geologically speaking, as it has not been subject to metamorphism. The matrix is made up of the shells of freshwater gastropods and viviparus winkles, similar to but larger than those making Purbeck Marble. The pale calcified remains of the shells are in a matrix of darker material. West Sussex has a good concentration of thin layers of Sussex Marble; beds typically measure no more than 1 foot (0.30 m) thick. There are often two beds—the lower formed of smaller-shelled gastropods than the upper—with a layer of calcareous clay between them. (en)
