Abstract: |
Herefordshire Archaeology undertook a survey which formed part of the Herefordshire Woodlands Archaeological Survey undertaken in partnership with the Forestry Commission. A rapid site identification survey was carried out in Yeld's Wood using a hand held Global Positioning by Satellite System to record the location of archaeological features encountered. Earthwork features were recorded within the wood that illustrate a history of intensive woodland management since the post medieval period, including wood boundaries, charcoal burning platforms, saw pits and networks of hollow ways and terraced track ways with associated collection/storage platforms. Evidence of industrial activities were recorded in the form of quarries and a limekiln. |
