Abstract: |
Herefordshire Archaeology undertook a commons survey, forming part of a pilot study for The Community Commons Project operated by Herefordshire Nature Trust. A rapid walk over survey was carried out on the Common concerned. A hand held Global Positioning by Satellite System was used to record the location of features encountered. Features were recorded within the Common that illustrate the intensive use of the land resource in the post-medieval period, i.e. quarries, drainage channels, settlement platforms and hollow way. Eight features were recorded within the current extent of the common. The features include the parish boundary that separates the parishes of Brimfield and Orleton. Other features include drainage channels and quarrying activity. The features are largely thought to be post-medieval. |
