  • The Long Barrows and Long Mounds of West Mendip
    Proc. Univ. Bristol Spelaeol. Soc., 2008, 24 (3), 187-206 THE LONG BARROWS AND LONG MOUNDS OF WEST MENDIP by JODIE LEWIS ABSTRACT This article considers the evidence for Early Neolithic long barrow construction on the West Mendip plateau, Somerset. It highlights the difficulties in assigning long mounds a classification on surface evidence alone and discusses a range of earthworks which have been confused with long barrows. Eight possible long barrows are identified and their individual and group characteristics are explored and compared with national trends. Gaps in the local distribution of these monuments are assessed and it is suggested that areas of absence might have been occupied by woodland during the Neolithic. The relationship between long barrows and later round barrows is also considered. INTRODUCTION Long barrows are amongst the earliest monuments to have been built in the Neolithic period. In Southern Britain they take two forms: non-megalithic (or “earthen”) long barrows and megalithic barrows, mostly belonging to the Cotswold-Severn tradition. Despite these differences in architectural construction, the long mounds are of the same, early 4th millennium BC, date and had a similar purpose. The chambers of the long mounds were used for the deposition of the human dead and the monuments themselves appear to have acted as a focus for ritual activities and religious observations by the living. Some long barrows show evidence of fire lighting, feasting and deposition in the forecourts and ditches of the monuments, and alignment upon solstice events has also been noted. A local example of this can be observed at Stoney Littleton, near Bath, where the entrance and passage of this chambered long barrow are aligned upon the midwinter sunrise1.

  • Hydrochemical Studies in Swildon's Hole, Priddy, Somerset
    Proc. Univ. Bristol Spelaeol. Soc., 2007, 24 (2), 121-175 HYDROCHEMICAL STUDIES IN SWILDON’S HOLE, PRIDDY, SOMERSET By R.D. STENNER, D. COOKE, K. GLENTON, A.V. KNIGHTS, M. MacDONALD, F.L. STENNER, L. WILLIAMS, and J. WILLIAMS ABSTRACT A detailed and comprehensive study was made of the hydrochemical properties of the streams flowing through Swildon’s Hole in 1999 and 2000 with additional data being collected in 2002 to permit the inclusion of data from a “normal” dry summer. Measurements were made and water samples were collected in the cave and from the surface streams feeding it. The aim was to measure the concentrations of all ionic species present in the samples in significant levels (accuracy and precision being checked by calculating ion balances). For each sampling trip in the cave it was possible to calculate progressive increments of total hardness and discharge as the stream flowed through the cave. These increments took place as water from the various stream inlets joined the Main Stream. Seasonal changes were assessed in the characteristics of many of the “drip and trickle” inlets. Although many properties showed low variability, data for aggressiveness were particularly instructive. In most inlets beyond Rolling Thunder, pronounced seasonal changes of aggressiveness were found. These changes were consistent with independent observations concerning levels of carbon dioxide in the air in the cave. In addition, all of the inlets beyond Rolling Thunder are contaminated with nitrate, chloride, sodium and potassium, strongly indicating the presence of contamination by human or animal waste. At the six inlets beyond Rolling Thunder as far as Sump I, the presence of faecal bacteria was confirmed.

  • The Stratford Lane Roman Road and Other Early Routes on Mendip
    Proc, Univ. Bristol Spelaeol. Soc, 1992 19 (2), 151-182 THE STRATFORD LANE ROMAN ROAD AND OTHER EARLY ROUTES ON MENDIP by R.G..I.WILLIAMS ABSTRACT The existence of the Stratford Lane Road was first suggested in 1906- Opinions have differed firstly as lo us course from Ihe Mendip hilltop into Ihe Chew Valley and secondly as to Us function. This road and some medieval mutes in the ure;i wliidi might have Roman or earlier origins are examined in detail in this paper which also queries Ihe theory that the River Chew was used to transport Roman lead. Fieldwork was aided by the study of documents dating from ihe .sixteenth century held locally and in Ihe United Stales »f America. Fresh information on some archaeological sites on Mendip is given, including newly identified round-barrows, old boundary stones, a pillow mound and Ihe boundary of a medieval warren. INTRODUCTION In all ages since the neolithic farming communities became settled there has been a need for both local communication between habitation sites and access to resources. The elaborately constructed wooden trackways, dated to the Neolithic, Bronze Age and Iron Age periods, found in the peat moors south of the Mendip Hills, suggest a planned communication system with connections to other areas. Iron Age settlement on Ihe central Mendip plateau in caves, enclosures and hill-forts is confined to the edges of the escarpment but there is a dispersed pattern of farmsteads in the surrounding valleys, There is evidence of bronze and iron working at these .sites but there was only a limited use of lead in the Iron Age.

We are three parishes of different sizes, histories and backgrounds, who are growing together through the Holy Spirit. We value the liturgy as an expression of our faith in God We aim to live the Gospel in our communities We are learning to work together in unity as a Benefice Introduction Each parish has its own parish church, Parochial Church Council and its own distinctive character. The Benefice was formed six years ago when both previous incumbents retired - formerly Cheddar had been a single parish whilst Draycott and Rodney Stoke had worked together for many years. They had also experienced ministry very differently with Cheddar having had only two incumbents in the previous 50 years whilst Rodney Stoke and Draycott had shared several house for duty clergy and some long vacancies.

  • 141. Mendip Hills Area Profile: Supporting Documents
    National Character 141. Mendip Hills Area profile: Supporting documents www.gov.uk/natural-england 1 National Character 141. Mendip Hills Area profile: Supporting documents Introduction National Character Areas map As part of Natural England’s responsibilities as set out in the Natural Environment 1 2 3 White Paper , Biodiversity 2020 and the European Landscape Convention , we are North revising profiles for England’s 159 National Character Areas (NCAs). These are areas East that share similar landscape characteristics, and which follow natural lines in the landscape rather than administrative boundaries, making them a good decision- Yorkshire making framework for the natural environment. & The North Humber NCA profiles are guidance documents which can help communities to inform their West decision-making about the places that they live in and care for. The information they contain will support the planning of conservation initiatives at a landscape East scale, inform the delivery of Nature Improvement Areas and encourage broader Midlands partnership working through Local Nature Partnerships. The profiles will also help West Midlands to inform choices about how land is managed and can change. East of England Each profile includes a description of the natural and cultural features that shape our landscapes, how the landscape has changed over time, the current key London drivers for ongoing change, and a broad analysis of each area’s characteristics and ecosystem services. Statements of Environmental Opportunity (SEOs) are South East suggested, which draw on this integrated information. The SEOs offer guidance South West on the critical issues, which could help to achieve sustainable growth and a more secure environmental future.
