Abstract:
The pollen results from the King's Pool show the changing environment over the last 2000 years. In the part of the pollen diagram which may represent the Roman period there are few signs of agriculture, and a possible interruption. After this there are increased signs of cereals which are interpreted as the results of early medieval activity probably in Stafford itself. Then, further increases in cereals together with Cannabaceae, probably from hemp, seem to represent medieval agriculture. There are also signs of peas, beans, flax and walnut having been grown or processed locally, and the results provide a background for the study of the plant macrofossils from inside Stafford itself. There are also some signs of regeneration of natural vegetation which may represent later medieval events. Finally, there is agriculture with very marked growing or retting of Cannabaceae, and signs of buckwheat which show this to be probably post-medieval.
