  • FOOTNOTES Newsletter of the Dorset Area of the Ramblers Association ISSUE NO
    DORSET FOOTNOTES Newsletter of the Dorset Area of the Ramblers Association ISSUE NO. 70 Spring 2015 ABBOTSBURY – A MODERN FEUDAL VILLAGE ’m sure that many of you have been on walks through this picturesque village, and not just those from ISouth Dorset Group. If you haven’t then you have missed some of the best scenic views in the county. From the ridge above Abbotsbury, leading to the iron-age fort (c.500 BC), you have a magnificent panorama before you with the coast and the fleet on one side and the rolling Dorset landscape on the other. On a clear day you can easily see Portland Bill and in the other direction, with good eyesight, Start Point in Cornwall. So for those who know Abbotsbury, and for those yet to discover this gem, here’s a little background leading to an explanation of the title of this piece. In the days before Sky Sports, Match of the Day etc. most young men seem to have spent their spare time in the popular pursuits of raping and pillaging – frowned on today but very popular at the end of the first millennium. One such enthusiast was called Orc (nothing to do with Tolkien) who was very close to the then lord of these parts, King Canute, who led the last Viking invasion of Wessex. You may remember he was the first Eurosceptic who tried to send the sea back to France (1:0 to the French I think). However to reward Orc for all his hard work and loyal service King Canute gave him a sizeable chunk of land encompassing Abbotsbury, Portesham and in fact most of South Dorset.

  • Higher Geography
    LITHOSPHERE CORE COASTLINES MARINE EROSION PROCESSES. Read the course booklet. You will need to know and be able to explain the four methods of coastal erosion and two of weathering The next few slides illustrate these processes. 1 LITHOSPHERE CORE COASTLINES Hydraulic Action The force of waves hitting a cliff (or sea wall) compresses water and air into cracks and joints. This increase in pressure may lead to cracks widening and pieces of rock breaking off. 2 LITHOSPHERE CORE COASTLINES Abrasion Rock fragments may be picked up by waves and thrown against the rock face of cliffs by subsequent waves. Sometimes the softer strata are abraded more than the harder ones, giving a striped appearance. Abrasion is most effective at the base of cliffs. 3 LITHOSPHERE CORE COASTLINES Wave attrition Rock fragments are worn down into smaller and more rounded pieces. Currents and tidal movements cause the fragments to be swirled around and to grind against each other. This type of erosion produces pebble beaches. 4 LITHOSPHERE CORE COASTLINES Water- layer weathering Alternative wetting and drying -as happens with the rise and fall of the tides -can disintegrate porous or coarser rock layers. Salt crystals growing in rock spaces can do the same thing. 5 LITHOSPHERE CORE COASTLINES Corrosion (solution) Salts and acids in sea water can react with rocks , slowly dissolving them away. 6 LITHOSPHERE CORE COASTLINES Rates of erosion depend on many factors: Waves – strength, frequency, height Weather – frequency of storm conditions Geology of the coastline : -type of rock -orientation of stratification (the way the bedding planes in the rock face the sea) 7 LITHOSPHERE CORE COASTLINES The FETCH is the distance travelled by waves from one shore to another.

All rights reserved. Permission Number Defra 012012.003. Contains Ordnance Survey Licence No. 100049981 and UK Hydrographic Office data. © Marine Management Organisation. Licence No EK001-201188. MCA 4: Poole and Christchurch Bays Overall cShnaarpaschteort Key Characteristics Description Visual Resource Mapping Location and boundaries This Marine Character Area (MCA) covers the coastline from Peveril Point in the west to the eastern fringes of Milford on Sea in the east, covering the whole of Poole and Christchurch Bays. Its seaward boundary with The Solent (MCA 5) is formed by the change in sea and tidal conditions upon entry into the Needles Channel. In the west, the coastal/seaward boundary with MCA 3 follows the outer edge of the Purbeck Heritage Coast. The Character Area extends to a maximum distance of approximately 40 kilometres (22 nautical miles) offshore, ending at the northern extent of the Wight-Barfleur Reef candidate offshore SAC (within MCA 14). Please note that the MCA boundaries represent broad zones of transition (not immediate breaks in character). Natural, visual, cultural and socio- economic relationships between adjacent MCAs play a key role in shaping overall character. Therefore individual MCAs should not be considered in isolation. Overall character This MCA is dominated in the west by the busy port of Poole Harbour, which is a hive of marine-based activity as well as an internationally important wildlife refuge. The more tranquil Christchurch Harbour sits beyond the protruding Hengistbury Head, which separates the two bays.
