Abstract:
A Conservation Management Plan was prepared for the Carl Wark hillfort, on behalf of the National Trust. The hillfort is a Scheduled Monument on Hathersage Moor, part of the Sheffield Moors, in the Peak District National Park. The plan is intended to guide and inform the ongoing management and approach to the site. Carl Wark is a natural gritstone promontory accentuated by stone walling on the south and east sides and a massive turf-built rampart with drystone facing on the easier west approach. The site is generally considered to be a slight univallate hillfort, likely to date to the 1st millennium BC, but its unusual form and an absence of secure dating evidence means that this has always been open to interpretation. Excavations at the site in the 1950s were never fully published and no clear evidence for the date of the site was produced. It is likely that the site's dramatic appearance and setting would have made it a significant location throughout the history of human activity in the valley. The CMP discusses the range of current uses of the site, along with their potential to impact on the ecological and archaeological resource. A series of management policies are proposed as well as recommendations for further work to enhance the understanding of the site and opportunities to engage the public in the conservation of the monument.
