Abstract: |
A rapid archaeological survey and assessment in advance of peat restoration works on the Raydale Estate, Wensleydale, North Yorkshire. A total of 26 archaeological remains and historic features were surveyed, including 8 newly discovered sites, expanding the existing knowledge and understanding of the archaeology of Wensleydale. The overwhelming majority of the archaeological features were post-medieval in date, and related to agricultural features (sheepfolds, and peat cutting), land ownership (boundary stones and drystone walls) and grouse shooting (including a shooting hut and grouse butts). Some potentially medieval features were recorded including a small rectangular, two celled building and an associated marker cairn. No prehistoric features were recorded from within the survey area. |
