Glaciated upland landscapes
Corries, pyramidal peaks and u-shaped valleys form due to glaciation. Glaciated uplands are used for different land uses which can lead to conflict; strategies must be adopted to deal with these.

Glacial erosion on an Ordnance Survey (OS) map
As well as being able to describe features of glacial erosion, you also need to be able to recognise them on an Ordnance Survey (OS) map.
Pyramidal peaks are the highest point in an area and will often be marked by a spot height - a black dot with a number beside it, indicating the height of the land in metres.
