Abstract:
In May 2004, English Heritage undertook an archaeological investigation and analytical field survey of Figham Common, Beverley, in the East Riding of Yorkshire. This survey formed part of a national project by English Heritage to investigate the archaeological content and historic environments of urban commons in England. The survey identified a number of trackways, areas of ridge and furrow ploughing, embanked enclosures, and a group of sub-circular mounds whose function is unclear. Documentary analysis and aerial photographic interpretation have also helped to identify a late 19th-century rifle range and evidence of Second World War activity. The study of cartographic sources has also served to identify alterations in the boundary of the Common, and its relationship with Beverley's urban layout. (This was report 23/2004 in a previous series).
