The Cornish sources of tin, so famous in Roman times, came into production in about lOOOBCE. The chief Phoenician port in Britain and the center of the tin trade was probably St. Michael s Mount in Cornwall, which is Strabo s Ictis. The Odyssey also mentions a market for bronze in a country called Thamesis, which may correspond to the region of the Thames estuary. ... 

Resistivity probes can be embedded in concrete. The design shown in Figure 5.6 was installed in the Dartford Tunnels on the River Thames estuary (Broomfield et ai, 2003). Data collected is shown in Figure 5.7. 

Almost all the areas in the U.K. where the chemical industry is concentrated are situated on river estuaries and have a very strong petrochemical link. Examples are Fawley (near Southampton), the Thames Estuary, Baglan Bay (south-west Wales), Merseyside, Humberside, Teesside and Grangemouth (near Edinburgh). Plans are also well advanced for petrochemical developments on the east coast of Scotland, well north of Aberdeen, where oil and gas from the North Sea oilfields are pumped ashore.
