Abstract The abstract describing the content of the publication or report |
A new field survey of two deserted medieval farmsteads at Ramspits in Westbury-sub-Mendip parish, together with a part of the surrounding landscape, was supplemented by documentary sources from the fourteenth to nineteenth centuries. The two farmsteads were deserted by the middle of the fifteenth century but the associated landholdings survived into the late eighteenth century, when new farm buildings were established within a sub-square enclosure. The farmsteads, of which there are several similar examples on Mendip, lie within a complex landscape of trackways and fields which survives as a narrow band between encroaching medieval strip lynchets on the Mendip slope and the parliamentary enclosure landscape on the plateau. It seems very likely that elements in this landscape have origins in the prehistoric or Romano-British period. | ||||||||
