Abstract The abstract describing the content of the publication or report |
Report on an archaeological survey of Larkbarrow Farm, to the northwest of Exford in Exmoor National Park, undertaken in 2000--1. The farm buildings are now ruined, and much of the land comprises rough grassland and heather moor. The archaeological evidence demonstrates human activity dating back over 6000 years, with a range of field monuments dating from the Late Neolithic period and Early Bronze Age, although the apparent disappearance of Lark Barrow during the later-nineteenth century indicates the fragile nature of these monuments. A wide range of features relating to nineteenth-century improvements indicated developing farming methods employed on the moor in this period. The importance of water management is illustrated by an extensive gutter system on the slopes of Long Combe. The survey brought together a range of evidence combining ground survey, aerial photography and documentary sources to contribute to a more comprehensive understanding of this upland landscape. | |||||||||
