...This has again been correlated with MIS 6 (Gibbard et al., 2011; 2018) and represents the second-largest recorded glaciation in eastern Britain, smaller than the earlier Anglian Stage glaciation (MIS 12) and larger than the later Devensian Stage glaciation (MIS 5d–2)....

...It is therefore possible that the ice sheets over Ireland and Scotland in MIS 8 and 10 were very active, possibly reaching the Atlantic continental shelf, as in the last glacial–interglacial cycle (Stoker and Bradwell, 2005; Bradwell et al., 2007; Peters et al., 2016), but that this was not matched by extensive ice farther east over England and Wales or continental Europe....

...In contrast, as in the Netherlands, recent dating evidence from eastern England has confirmed that a major glaciation did occur in MIS 6 (Evans et al., 2019) confirming the Wolstonian (= Saalian) age of a glaciation that reached into the Fenland basin in eastern England (Gibbard et al., 2018)....

...As with the MIS 8 evidence, there are some isolated age determinations that did hint at possible MIS 10–age glacial advances (e.g., Scourse et al., 1999) in the Nar Valley area of Norfolk in eastern England....
