Built by Augustus Berkeley, 4th Earl of Berkeley, in 1739 to defend nearby farmlands from erosion and flooding,[8] the breakwater's existence is acknowledged in numerous archives and records during the 18th century, including tidal defence plans in 1845 and redevelopment plans dating from 1877.

[9][10] The breakwater was an often-used point of reference for navigation of the river;[11] however, it fell into disrepair and disappeared beneath the sandbanks.

In December 2013, however, it emerged, and local historians were granted funds from the Bristol and Gloucestershire Archaeological Society to photograph and study it.
