Abstract:
Porlock bay is located on the Southern Side of the Britsol Channel on the north coast of Somerset. The area of land known as Porlock Marsh extends between a shingle ridge which separates it from the sea and the 10 m contour. The area is a site of special scientific interest. In 1994 the added threat of imminent marine inclusion through the ridge, and the inherent risk of erosion of the surfacae archaeological features and the contamination/ distrubance of the deposits beneath, led to an approach to English Heritage to fund an evaluation of hte area prior to the predicted incursion. This paper presents preliminary findings of the evaluation ahead of a final report that will be submitted to English Heritage in the future
