Channels such as this one are a common sight in the low-lying flat land near the coast on both sides of the Bristol Channel. They are usually called reens on the northern (Welsh) side of the Bristol Channel and rhynes on the English side, such as this one http://www.geograph.org.uk/photo/3031008 in North Somerset.
