Summary The widespread occurrence and problems associated with beeding plane slip surfaces are described. Two well exposed virtually horizontal (measured in the direction of sliding) bedding planes in the Hampshire cliffs of England are described and reasons for their utilisation during shallow landsliding discussed. These two examples provide a striking demonstration of the extent to which a preferential control on the form of landsliding can be exercised by such surfaces irrespective of their level within the slope profile.
