This dataset consists of EBSD (electron backscatter diffraction), AMS (anisotropy of magnetic susceptibility) and AARM (anhysteretic anisotropy of remanent magnetisation) files, and magnetic carrier characterisation information, for samples collected from the Whin Sill ,northern England. Described in the paper Unravelling the complex record of magma flow and solidification in sills (Williams et al. 2025 - accepted into the Journal of the Geological Society May 2025). This work was completed at the University of Liverpool. Samples were collected and named WS01, WS02, WQC1C, WQC2C and WQC3C. The dataset includes .ctf files from the samples, which contain crystal orientation data from thin sections, .ran files which include the AMS and AARM fabric information for each sample, and .cur files of magnetic susceptibility data, hysteresis data from VFTB.
