Abstract: |
This report considers the risk of cultivation and related factors to known archaeological sites in fields near Charlton, owned by John Rodgman and farmed by George Massingham. It is based on a risk assessment model initially developed for English Nature by the Oxford Archaeological Unit (COSMIC: OAU 2006) and further developed by Worcestershire Historic Environment and Archaeology Service for Natural England (COSMIC+: WHEAS 2009b) The assessment is intended to inform a management plan and an application for Higher Level Stewardship. It covers eight fields in which archaeological sites were already known from cropmarks or other evidence. All of the sites had been noted in a previous consultation and were considered to be of high risk of erosion. The main aims of the project were to define the risk, in each case; to identify the factors that cause and prevent erosion; and to recommend appropriate management options. |
