Abstract: |
A desk-based assessment and walkover of the study area was undertaken. The assessment revealed an area that succinctly exhibits the development of railway transport in the Forest of Dean area. There were a number of industrial enterprises in the vicinity of the study area, these were instrumental in the adoption and development of the transport infrastructure, which initially started as tram roads, developed into tramways, and later into rail tracks. Numerous footpaths (on the site of former tracks) and embankments in the study area were related to these transportation enterprises. Letcher's Bridge, a 19th-century tramway bridge was also extant in the study area. It was recommended that any future work at the study area should take into account the presence of these relict industrial features. [Au(abr)] |
