Abstract:
A desk-based assessment of existing records (RCAHMS); historic maps and documentary sources (NAS) was followed up with a rapid field survey to ground truth and establish the baseline character of features noted and to identify any other significant constraints to woodland planting on the slopes of William Law on the east bank of the Halk Burn. A number of minor features (field clearance heaps, quarries, possible cultivation terraces) were identified. An area of putative rig and furrow cultivation adjacent to the Halk Burn was re-interpreted as drainage. An enclosure (thought to be possibly prehistoric) was re-interpreted as being more likely to be late medieval and associated with an early settlement at Williamlaw Farm. The cultivation terracing recorded in the RCAHMS database (NT44SE 1) was found to be well-preserved and more extensive than existing records suggest.
