| Abstract: |
The archaeological study was undertaken in half of Badock's Wood and two fields (one of which was formally the site of a prefab estate). The latter field also contained a mound that had long been considered a Bronze Age barrow. Since at least the 17th century the field containing the barrow was named Milltut or Mill Toot, which suggested that the mound was once the site of a windmill. However, no remains of a mill were identified at the mound. Badock's Wood was laid out as a pleasure ground in the 19th century, the paths and watercourse features already existed by the time of the Ordnance Survey visit of 1880. [Au(abr)] |
