Abstract:		 As a pilot study ahead of the prospective future roll-out of the project across the Lake District National Park, Greenlane Archaeology was commissioned to carry out a walkover survey of the Lickle Valley Area to identify and assess the condition of farmsteads, traditional farm buildings and landscape features associated with farming, that contribute to the character of the Lake District National Park and Outstanding Universal Value of the World Heritage Site. The project also comprises a desk-based element, which principally comprised an examination of early maps of the area. The core survey area is spread over c7.45km2 along both sides of the River Lickle. The walkover survey identified 32 sites within the area five of which were already recorded in the Lake District National Park Historic Environment Record (HER). Three of the sites identified are Listed Buildings or associated with Listed Buildings. In addition, a further 42 relevant sites were visited that had already been recorded as by the Duddon Local History Group as part of the Ring Cairns to Reservoirs project in 2008, in order to assess what condition these were in and whether they had changed significantly since that date. The sites revealed in the core survey area varied widely in type, but primarily comprised barns and similar structures, but also sheepfolds and sections of ‘shard’ fence, which were recorded as these are relatively rare and unusual boundary types.
