On the British Geological Survey web site you can view an interactive map of British geology http://bgs.ac.uk/discoveringGeology/geologyOfBritain/viewer.html?src=topNav You can turn on borehole records and by clicking on a borehole view the records. (Some records are misplaced on the map and some records are for springs/wells - I think the main st of Grange has three)
Getting to the point. There are a series of records relating to a 60's survey to put a road across the Kent estuary upstream of the railway viaduct. One borehole on the Arnside side hit carboniferous limestone at -100ft and continued in it for 30+ft. In the middle of the estuary one borehole was ended in silt/gravel/boulders at -216ft because a strong flow of fresh water prevented recovery of undisturbed samples.
