What a town remembers, and what its ground keeps
A civic brochure from the School of Underlying Conditions invites river towns to bring the marks they keep of a flood, from the painted line on the hall wall to the honour board and the plaque, and to read them beside what the ground has kept: the flood-laid layer in a soil profile, the long record of a monitoring bore, and the core that never came up. It rests the invitation on six published University studies of how places mark and remember, cited by title and DOI.
