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 The Moor Estate woods, including Cwm-bach Wood, the western part of Hawkswood, Grove Wood, Pontfaen Dingle, Newhouse Wood and Coy Cae Wood, using a hand held Global Positioning System to record the location of archaeological features encountered. Earthwork features were observed within the woods that illustrate a long history of human activity including agricultural production, woodland management, mineral extraction, and water management, dating from the medieval period to the 19th century. Recorded archaeological features and monuments include field lynchets, charcoal burning platforms, quarries, holloways, a limekiln, a dam, a well, and leats associated with a mill and a landscape park. |
