Abstract: |
Herefordshire Archaeology undertook a woodland 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 the wood concerned, using a hand held Global Positioning System to record the location of the features that were recognised as having archaeological significance. A series of linear earthworks were recorded within the wood which appear to represent a medieval boundary bank, defining an area around a possible medieval industrial site. Earthwork features were recorded within the wood that illustrate the intensive use of the woodland resource in the late and post medieval periods. These included saw pits, charcoal burning platforms, quarries and woodland management boundaries. |
