Abstract: |
A historic environment assessment was required by Mark Hamilton Landscape Services to inform a proposed planting scheme at Shankston and Keirsmill Farms, near Patna, 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. Eight historic environment sites were identified and are considered within this report. These are: one 19th century farmstead, one pre-19th century quarry, two 19th century road sections, three area of field banks, and one 19th century farm pond. Based on the evidence gathered for this assessment, positive management has been recommended to safeguard four sites. |
