Text by Simon Timberlake with contributions from John Barnatt, Lee Bray, David Cranstone, John ickin and Phil Newman 2.1 Non-ferrous Metals 2.1.1 ..read more

CASE STUDY – Somerset Plain The Somerset Levels have an area of about 160,000 acres (650 km2) and are bisected by the Polden Hills; the areas to the south are drained by the River Parrett and the areas to the north by the rivers Axe and Brue.

In a moment of reflection, as we approach the Winter Solstice, it is with great amusement and disdain how such an apparent natural occurrence in the physical year could be bastardised so successfully by the Christian church in its repulsion of all things ‘pagan’.
