Hoo Peninsula, North Kent coast, Thames Estuary : A Palaeoenvironmental Review of the Development of the Hoo Peninsula
Author(s): Zoë Hazell
This report forms part of the output of the ‘Hoo Peninsula Historic Landscape Project’ (5733), reviewing and describing the Quaternary palaeoenvironmental development and associated deposits of the region; in particular those of fluvial- (deriving from the migrating Rivers Medway and Thames) and marine- (deposits associated with fluctuating sea levels) origin. Within these contexts, archaeological deposits and remains have been discussed where present. The studies on which this review is based result from a combination of academic- and development-led research across a variety of disciplines. Sites from which palaeoenvironmental proxies (ie sub-fossils) have been recovered and/or analysed are summarised and recorded as a layer within the project’s GIS output.
