These are areas that share similar landscape characteristics, and which East follow natural lines in the landscape rather than administrative boundaries, making them a good decision-making framework for the natural environment. Yorkshire & The North Humber NCA profiles are guidance documents which can help communities to inform West their 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 East landscape scale, inform the delivery of Nature Improvement Areas and encourage Midlands broader partnership working through Local Nature Partnerships. The profiles will West also help to inform choices about how land is managed and can change. Midlands East of Each profile includes a description of the natural and cultural features England that shape our landscapes, how the landscape has changed over time, the current key drivers for ongoing change, and a broad analysis of each London area’s characteristics and ecosystem services. Statements of Environmental South East Opportunity (SEOs) are suggested, which draw on this integrated information. South West The SEOs offer guidance on the critical issues, which could help to achieve sustainable growth and a more secure environmental future.

  • No Middle Palaeolithic at King Arthur's Cave!
    Proc. Univ. Bristol Spelaeol. Soc., 2003, 23 (1), 17-26 GETTING IT RIGHT: NO MIDDLE PALAEOLITHIC AT KING ARTHUR'S CAVE! by ARTHUR ApSIMON with an Appendix by R.M. Jacobi ABSTRACT In a reassessment of the site published a decade ago, the suggestion was made that King Arthur's Cave had been visited by hunters during the Middle Palaeolithic (ApSimon, et al. 1992). The purpose of this note is to withdraw that suggestion; the sealing of artifacts below stalagmite on which it relied is shown to be doubtful and the faunal and archaeological evidence is against it. It is alternatively suggested that the putative Middle Palaeolithic artifacts are Late Upper Palaeolithic. A firm suggestion for the location of the critical context is made, with the implication that doubts about the original excavator’s account were unwarranted, and that potential exists for further investigation and recovery of speleothem samples for dating. INTRODUCTION King Arthur’s Cave, a well-known palaeontological and archaeological site, is located in the Wye Valley, in Herefordshire, about 21 km south-south-east of Hereford and 5 km north- east of Monmouth (NGR SU5458 1558). The topographic and geological aspects of the site are dealt with in the 1992 paper of ApSimon et al. and it is sufficient to note here that the cave lies at about 110 m above OD, roughly 90 m above the present valley floor, and that it is situated on the side of a short dry valley which ends in the steep cliffs and bluffs of the Wye Valley gorge. The suggestion of a Middle Palaeolithic presence at King Arthur’s Cave made in the 1992 paper relied on the account of the stratification of the cave given by the original excavator, the Rev.
