  • Aust Cliff and Manor Farm
    This excursion guide is a draft chapter, subject to revision, to be published in a field guide book whose reference is: Lavis, S. (Ed.) 2021. Geology of the Bristol District, Geologists’ Association Guide No. 75. It is not to be circulated or duplicated beyond the instructor and their class. Please send any corrections to Michael Benton at [email protected] Aust Cliff and Manor Farm Michael J. Benton Maps OS Landranger 172 1:50 000 Bristol & Bath Explorer 167 1:25 000 Thornbury, Dursley & Yate BGS Sheet 250 1:50 000 Chepstow Main references Swift & Martill (1999); Allard et al. (2015); Cross et al. (2018). Objectives The purpose of the excursion is to examine a classic section that documents the major environmental shift from terrestrial to marine rocks caused by the Rhaetian transgression, as well as the Triassic-Jurassic boundary, and to sample the rich fossil faunas, and espe- cially the Rhaetian bone beds. Risk analysis Low tides are essential for the excursion to Aust Cliff. Tides rise very rapidly along this section of coast (with a tidal range of about 12 m) and strong currents sweep past the bridge abutment. Visitors should begin the excursion on a falling tide. If caught on the east side of the bridge abutment when the tide rises, visitors should continue east along the coast to the end of the cliff where a path leads back to the motorway service area. In addition, the entire section is a high cliff, and rock falls are frequent, so hard hats must be worn. The Manor Farm section lies inland and is lower, so hard hats are less necessary.

  • And Myths of Rome's Second Augusta Legion and St Augustine's 'Oak'
    Trans. Bristol & Gloucestershire Archaeological Society 129 (2011), 117–137 Aust (Gloucestershire) and Myths of Rome’s Second Augusta Legion and St Augustine’s ‘Oak’ Conference By DAVID H. HIGGINS Introduction Aust in Gloucestershire has long attracted speculation over the origin of its name. The two favoured hypotheses offer an alternative: either (a) this minor ferry terminus with its settlement was named by (or after) the Second Augusta Legion of the Roman army which, stationed in full strength at Isca-Caerleon between c. 78 AD and the 3rd century, would have regularly crossed the Severn estuary from Sedbury to Aust (Augusta the claimed origin of the place-name) in order to access the main Abona (Sea Mills) to Glevum (Gloucester) artery; or (b) was named in memory of the Roman churchman St Augustine (in the later Middle Ages popularly contracted to ‘Austin’) of Canterbury who, in 603 AD (traditional date), held a conference allegedly at or hard by Aust, beneath a landmark oak tree, with leaders of the Christian Church of the autonomous British kingdom nearest to the recently converted Anglo-Saxon Kingdom of Kent.1 The object of Augustine’s conference was to bring about uniformity of practice between the indigenous church of post- Roman Britain and the historic Christian church established by St Peter in the ancient capital of the Roman world. The major subjects of dispute were the British dating of Easter and the form of the baptismal rite (both, the Roman Church urged, should be Roman) and, in addition, Augustine required that the British, although understandably reluctant, should undertake the evangelisation of the pagan Anglo-Saxon invaders of their land.
