Anniversary of 1607 killer wave
Submitted by senua on Mon, 02/19/2007 - 22:02.

Experts believe severe flooding on 30 January 1607 in south west England and south Wales was caused by a tsunami - and not a storm surge or high tides.

I heard about this a while ago- its quite a facinating topic. From what I've seen, Haslett & Bryant's evidence is quite sparse though. I was hoping to look into this in detail for my MSc dissertation but had to abandon the project
