Abstract: |
Herefordshire Archaeology was commissioned by the Malvern Hills Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty (AONB) as part of their investigations into Malvern Hills historic resource. The investigation revelaed the results of a trial excavation into a ridge top boundary with the potential to signify early medieval or Anglo Saxon land use. The feature was identified as a result of an earlier woodland survey of Whitman's Hill Coppice, Cradley, Herefordshire. Each of the archaeological deposits encountered during the course of the excavation are described, illustrated and an interpretation provided. The overall aim of the project was to enhance knowledge and raise public awareness of and interest in Whitman's Hill Coppice. The information would be made accessible for use by the Herefordshire and Worcestershire Earth Heritage Trust Volunteers (Earth Heritage Champions) when guiding people around the woodland. |
