Evaluating and enhancing the geoarchaeological resource of the Lower Severn Valley

The projects primary aim is to improve methodological approaches and baseline information underpinning strategic planning, individual application decisions and evaluation and mitigation strategies relating to mineral extraction in the Lower Severn Valley.

The project area has been designed to encompass both the active, and anticipated increasing, large-scale extraction of aggregates along a 50km stretch of the Lower Severn Valley, from Stourport to below Gloucester.
