Abstract:
Gloucestershire and Somerset County Councils have been undertaking the English Heritage funded Rapid Coastal Zone Assessment Survey (RCZAS) of the archaeology of the Severn Estuary in England since 2006. Phase 1 consisted of a desk-based assessment of all known recorded historical and archaeological assets within the RCZAS area, along with the transcription and analysis of aerial photographic and LiDAR data. A pilot stage of GPS-based survey took place during April-June 2009 in order to test equipment, methodologies and logistics for a more extensive Phase 2 fieldwork programme undertaken in April-October 2010 and March-April 2011. This report focuses on the numerous fishing structures from different periods that have been recorded during aerial and field survey, and builds upon previous studies of fishing-related structures and activities within the Severn Estuary. It includes the results of the radiocarbon dating of selected samples taken from these structures. The results of the Severn Estuary RCZAS reinforce the economic and social importance fishing once had to many coastal and riverside communities along the River Severn.
