Abstract: |
A survey was carried out during February 2005 as one in a series of whole farm surveys. In turn, these formed part of the Frome Valley Archaeology, Landscape Change and Conservation Project. Bythan is a good example of landscape change over time, and shows how it is possible to restore some historic aspects of this landscape. The earthworks identified during survey were mainly representative of small-scale management of landscape features such as field boundaries. Boundaries shown on the 1840 Tithe map of Avenbury, which had been removed, are now being re-established under the Countryside Stewardship Scheme. The present owners are aware of the importance of historic features and are keen to preserve them whilst still maintaining a good practical use for the land. |
