Medmerry,\u00a0\u00a0the country's first and largest open coast managed re-alignment scheme, is located\u00a0south of Chichester. The site\u00a0is managed by the RSPB together with Pagham Harbour, however the scheme itself was built by the Environment Agency as a flood defence work for Selsey and the Manhood peninsula. During the build a great deal of important archaeology was discovered that rewrote the history books on coastal settlement in the pre-historic past. Here is the story\u00a0behind the archaeology and the finds. Read the following article and follow this link<\/a> to find out more about the archaeology finds at Medmerry<\/a>:<\/p>\n
