Abstract: |
Rectory Wood and Field, Church Stretton, is a Countryside Heritage Site which lies within part of a historic park associated with the adjacent former Old Rectory. The grounds were laid out in the late 18th century and have associations with Lancelot (Capability) Brown. In November 2017 the Archaeology Service, Shropshire Council, undertook an archaeological recording and assessment of two features within the woodland. These comprised the remains of a former footbridge and a rockery, thought to be a fernery. The archaeological work was carried out on behalf of Church Stretton Town Council. |
