Summary
[edit]
| Description |
English: Longney from the air Seen from the east, with the Severn beyond. "The parish is long and narrow, the western boundary following the Severn for nearly 4 miles ... with a gravel terrace running down the spine of the parish where the ground rises at three points to 50 ft. To the east the land falls, and the eastern strip is mainly alluvial meadow land. The lie of the land and the nature of the soil suggest that the course of the Severn was formerly down the east side of the parish; the former bed of the river apparently remained at least marshy in the Saxon period when Longney received its name, signifying a long island".
