Abstract: |
A historic environment assessment was required by Mark Hamilton Landscape Services to inform a proposed planting scheme at Knockburnie, near New Cumnock, East Ayrshire. A desk-based assessment and walkover survey was designed to establish a sound baseline on the historic environment within the landholding and to make recommendations on its management. Fifteen historic environment sites were identified. These are: six former sheepfolds (S1, S7, S9-S11 and S14), three 19th century (or earlier) farmsteads or cottages (S3, S6 and S8), four quarries (S2, S5, S12 and S15), a mineral line (S13) and a linear ditchless bank (S4). Based on the evidence gathered for this assessment, positive management has been recommended to safeguard sites S1-S2, S6-S11 and S14. |
