    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.

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.

    Gloucestershire GL13 9UX description Sharpness Estate continues as a working port with a range of accommodation available to let and for sale. If you are interested in building plots, industrial warehouses, open storage or office accommodation please click here. The Sharpness Estate is wholly owned by the Canal and River Trust. The Estate incorporates a fully operational port which was constructed in the 1870’s to accommodate the larger ships in use. Much of the old warehouses constructed to accommodate the cargo have now been replaced with modern facilities and infrastructure. Today the dock is still used by ships discharging cargoes such as cement, fertilizer and scrap metal and leisure boats entering and exiting the Gloucester & Sharpness Canal network. There are a range of facilities available and a diverse range of businesses accommodated on the estate. Facilities include a shop, a marina and a Dockers Club (formally Sharpness Hotel). The picnic area on the south side of the entrance to the tidal basin provides seating to watch the ships and boats arriving and departing. Future opportunities for enhancing and promoting the Estate are being considered. View the indicative masterplan here.

  • Marine Safety in the Severn Estuary & Lower
    Marine Safety in the Severn Estuary & Lower Wye A Guide to Safe Navigation for Small Craft and Notes for River Bank Users (Updated May 2017) INTRODUCTION TO THE SEVERN ESTUARY The Severn Estuary can be a dangerous place, with shifting sands, a rapid rise of tide and strong tidal currents. Those who use the estuary need to be aware of the dangers and ready to deal with them safely. Since 1889 the Gloucester Harbour Trustees have regulated navigation and provided aids in the estuary to assist in the safe passage of all craft, whether commercial shipping or sailing dinghies. We have produced this guide to help all users of the estuary to understand the hazards and to know what to look out for, what to avoid and how to respond in an emergency. We hope that the information will be a useful contribution to the continued safe use of the estuary. The Gloucester Harbour is the formal name given to a defined area for which the Gloucester Harbour Trustees is the conservancy, harbour and local lighthouse authority. This area includes the River Severn and its estuary, extending from the Maisemore and Llanthony weirs near Gloucester, to lines seaward of the Second Severn Crossing. The River Wye as far as Bigsweir Bridge also falls within this area. 2 INDEX TO SECTIONS 1 General Safety Considerations 2 General Advice to Vessels 3 Tidal Considerations 4 Safety of Small Craft and Canal Craft 5 Conduct of Vessels 6 The River Severn between the Second Severn Crossing and Sharpness Dock 7 The River Severn between Sharpness Dock and Gloucester 8 The River

  • Nabo Cruising Notes Gloucester & Sharpness
    NABO CRUISING NOTES GLOUCESTER & SHARPNESS CANAL Introduction The Gloucester & Sharpness Canal forms the navigable link between the River Severn at Gloucester and the tidal Severn estuary at Sharpness – a distance of approximately 16 miles. Originally an important commercial waterway serving Gloucester Docks (Britain’s most inland port), it is now used extensively for pleasure cruising. The docks have been restored to create a popular tourist attraction. The National Waterways Museum is housed in Llanthony Warehouse. The canal is a Conservation Area – look out for the distinctive mile posts; and 8 of the original 15 bridges have splendid houses of the 1840 era beside them in the shape of a Greek cross each with 2 fluted Doric columns flanking the entrance porch. Towing path exists along the full length of canal except Hempsted to Gloucester Docks. Some sections are designated public footpaths. The Severn Way long distance path extends along the full length of the river Severn and is accessible from the canal.
