Abstract: |
Primary and secondary source material is used in this report. The National Trust Archives at Wansdyke and Killerton were consulted during the research phase for documents relating to the acquisition and ownership of Killerton by the National Trust, and any changes of land use that have taken place since 1944. The documents consulted are listed in Appendix 2 with transcriptions where appropriate. Additional transcriptions of documents undertaken by the National Trust as part of the Killerton Project in the early 2000s can be found in Appendix 5. The material held by the Devon Heritage Centre (DHC) and Somerset Record Office (SRO) was also consulted. A list of archive sources that were not consulted during the course of this study, but which may be of value to future research, can be found in Appendix 3. The National Trust Historic Environment Record (NTHBSMR) was consulted with regard to known archaeological sites, as was the Devon Historic Environment Record (DHER) and the National Monuments Record (NMR) in Swindon. All the available historic cartographic sources were consulted during this survey (see Volume II.1);a complete list of maps has been included in Appendix 1. Changes that occurred during and since the 18th century are shown as map overlays (Volume II.1). All known maps and plans relating to the Killerton Estate have been researched and recorded in Volume 1: Appendix 1. Where these maps are accessible they have been photographed, georeferenced and reproduced in this volume. The majority of maps reproduced in this volume are located in the Devon Heritage Centre, with a smaller number in the Somerset Heritage Centre. Maps held at the Plymouth and West Devon Record Centre were not accessible at this time of this study due to its closure for renovation. Additional maps are held by the National Trust Archive at Wansdyke or by the Property. Historic aerial photographs (Volume South West Archaeology Ltd. 10 II.1) and LiDAR data (Volume II.2) have also been consulted and processed. Aerial photographs were obtained from the National Trust and Devon HER. DTM and DSM LiDAR data with a 1m sampling interval were obtained from the Environment Agency and processed by SWARCH using QGIS versions 3.6; 3.8 and 3.14. The images in this volume are derived from LiDAR data freely available from the Environment Agency. Both surface (DSM) and terrain (i.e. bare earth, DTM) data was used. The majority of the data available was 1m interval LiDAR data although 50cm interval data was used where available for a small area in the north west of the estate. The data was processed using QGIS 3.8.3 Zanzibar and RVT 2.2.1. The Historic Environment Records of the National Trust and Devon County Council were consulted as part of this study, along with the Portable Antiquities Scheme database in order to gather all of the known historic environment data for the estate. The records from the National Trust and Devon County Council were amalgamated into one database and any features present in the Devon County records but not recorded by the National Trust were assigned NT HER numbers. Once analysis of remote sensing data had been carried out for the Killerton Estate (LiDAR and aerial photography analysis), any new features identified were also assigned NT HER numbers This survey brought together and collated the results of the previous fieldwork at the property, it examined the existing documentary material and consulted a range of sources including historic documents, maps, aerial photographs and LiDAR date to enable recommendations to be made for future heritage management of the Killerton Estate. |
