Abstract: |
Ecus Ltd was commissioned by the North York Moors National Park Authority to carry out archaeological monitoring of remedial works at Ana Cross Round Barrow and Wayside Cross (Scheduled Monument NHLE: 1018976) centred on National Grid Reference 472460, 493812. The archaeological monitoring was undertaken on the site between 20th February 2018 and 21st February 2018. The remedial works was to address the erosion issues facing the monument and to thereby remove the monument from Historic England's at Risk Register. The archaeological monitoring resulted in the remedial works to the north-south track to fix the high amounts of erosion that had occurred from footfall, bicycle use and use of quad bikes by local park rangers. The southern side of the mound was re-landscaped to create one footpath and deter visitors from creating another. The east-west track was re-landscaped with local heather to deter visitors from using this path. All routes had grass seeds spread to encourage natural grown grass in the environment. |
