Romney Marsh by Antony Long
Romney Marsh, the third largest coastal wetland in Britain, is a triangular-shaped landmass which projects into Rye Bay, Sussex and the eastern English Channel. For the last 10,000 years the sea has vacillated across the region, leaving rich sediments extending to depths of 20m or more. For the past 18 years the Romney Marsh Research Trust has been studying the history of this unique environment and the people who have occupied it. This is the fourth volume in the Romney Marsh monograph series, and its thirteen papers range across environmental, archaeological and historical themes. The authors demonstrate the dynamism of the Romney Marsh landscape over many thousands of years, focusing on the period between AD 200 and AD 1700, which takes in the end of peat formation and the cessation of major land reclamation.
