Abstract: |
Herefordshire Archaeology undertook a survey 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 Queen's Wood using a hand held Global Positioning System to record the location of archaeological features encountered. Earthwork features were recorded within the wood that illustrate a long history of woodland management since the medieval period, including woodland boundaries, charcoal burning platforms and holloways, and also of industrial activities including mineral extraction. Of particular interest is the survival of evidence of earlier agricultural activities within the present woodland. |
