Abstract: |
Herefordshire Archaeology undertook a surey which formed part of the Herefordshire Woodlands Archaeological Survey undertaken in partnership with the Forestry Commission. A rapid site identification survey was carried out in the wood concerned, using a hand held Global Positioning System to record the location of the features that were recognised as having archaeological significance. Earthwork features were recorded within the wood that illustrate the intensive use of the woodland resource in the post medieval period. These included saw pits, charcoal burning platforms, quarries and woodland management boundaries. Of particular interest was the presence of an earthwork thought to represent a Civil War breastwork relating to the first skirmish in the county. |
