A pollen sequence from Wether Hill, Northumberland, details changes in vegetation composition and diversity over the last c. 1500 years. Thesse are correlated with historical evidence over the last c. 800 years for a more complete understanding of the socio-economic context that governed the use of hill grazing. It is argued that changes in grazing regimes had a profound influence on these hill pastures, contributing to permanent changes in the relative abundance of heather, grasses and herbs, and causing a severe decline in habitat diversity over the last c. 200 years. It is further contended that the results have many regional paralleles, indicating extensive reductions in the biodiversity of upland habitats.
Medieval fields in north-east Scotland
Colin Shepherd
47 - 74
The author suggests that two shortcomings in the understanding of the evolution of the northeast landscape of Scotland -- a lack of secure dating horizons and a clear appreciation of the agricultural methods employed -- can be mitigated by the careful study and cross-referencing of documentary evidence, eighteenth-century estate plans and the extant historical landscape. It is argued that the suggested reconstructions of episodes of landscape development allow the recognition of datable horizons and a suggested structure for the evolution of the medieval and later landscapes of the area, and that a further consequence is to demonstrate how the native families of the area, in an increasingly feudalised environment, utilised and adapted aspects of agricultural technology found widely across contemporary European lands.
