Abstract:
Episodic coastal erosion at Hock Cliff on the inner Severn Estuary has exposed deposits of occupation debris associated with a small, tripartite, embanked enclosure on the cliff top, set among, and partly overlaid by, classical ridgeandjurrow. The debris is preserved in a range of contexts, consisting of stone and ceramic building material, abundant pottery, fuels and food residues, and objects of stone and metal, including a probable fishing-line sinker. Dating chiefly from the 11th and 12th centuries, the pottery suggests that the site was abandoned in the 13th century. The wares are mainly from the Worcester and Gloucester areas but include products from the Malvern and Bristol industries and from the Vale of Glamorgan. That they were traded by water is strongly implied.
