Dredging between lands lower Severn sands
Dredging between lands lower Severn sands
The dredger was wandering about the flats beyond The Denny which we consider to be land unfortunately washed by the Romano Transgression flood and the varied Wye Usk downpours roaring yellow brown sediment in the deep channel, or subsidence along the Malvern Fault, whatever?, whether Welsh or English is an issue as it is west of deep channel scouring Port's Head drain past The Battery, this is his approach run. We are open to negotiation with Newport rather alike the days of iron ore piers and bananas, but may have to run a barb wire fence down the middle? as certain Englishmen rowed out there in the early 1900s and the rats have owned it since then. Similar to Cyprus and Malvinas Hong Kong and Taiwan, but maybe one day they get it balanced? Masses of sediment today and a back current swirl in Port's Head esplanade embayment sending debris back upstream to be caught in the down estuary main stream charge, this of course ebb plus flood rivers. Highly turbulent and slack water. The social geography is for people bored with physical engineering geology and water which I dwell upon.
