Abstract: |
In March 2013 ASC carried out an archaeological field survey of Stoke Common, near Stoke Poges, Buckinghamshire, in order to aid the future management of the estate. Stoke Common is owned by the Corporation of London and was purchased to provide an open space for public enjoyment while preserving the natural aspect of the site. It covers an area of approximately 83ha, within which are areas of secondary oak woodland, grassland and bog, with the majority set as heathland. Because of this it has been designated as a Site of Special Scientific Interest (SSSI). Thirty-one individual archaeological features were observed during the survey, ranging in date from the medieval period to the 20th century. Most features fall into the category of land management, quarrying or World War II activity. The management and mitigation of the surviving archaeological record in relation to the Stoke Common Management Plan 2008-2018 is considered in some detail in this report. |
