When the sea swallowed part of Britain’s western coastline this year and then spat it out again, leaving homes and livelihoods destroyed but also a dense forest of prehistoric tree stumps more exposed than ever, it was as if one had caught a faint glimpse of that Welsh Atlantis.




i love reading stuff like this i hope all the people envolved in the search find some incredible stuff before mother nature recalims everything. Maybe this is the one upside of global warming , is that we get a chance to see long forgotten relics

Awesome, thanks for bringing it.


…But the floods and storms that battered Britain earlier this year…

Especially that Stags hoof print in the mud. (see the photo in OP link).

For a moment the mind swims with a scene of forest canopy and birds singing as a lone stag moves silently through the shadows.

British coastline has been eroding for thousands of years. In 500 years, some parts of the coastline have move inland by 3 miles (5000 metres). There are old maps that show villages, roads and churches that no longer exist. These days, you have people who buy a home with acres of garden next to a beach, only to see their garden disappear over the years.

Whenever there is a severe storm, the large sea swells and waves scrape away all the sediment slopes underwater. That sucks away all the sand and land above sea level as well. Then all sorts of archaeological artifacts appear.

Marvelous, just look at all that ancient wood. I wonder what other goodies from long ago will turn up with it?
