Abstract:
This toolkit is a methodology for rapidly identifying and assessing small wetlands, particularly with respect to potential for palaeoenvironmental data. It was commissioned by English Heritage from Worcestershire County Council. It forms part of wider work to identify and thus to aid the protection of waterlogged and wetland heritage under the National Heritage Protection Plan. Worcestershire, like many areas of the country, is not associated with extensive wetland landscapes that are generally considered to produce large bodies of valuable archaeological and palaeoecological information such as those recovered from the well known and well surveyed Cambridgeshire/Lincolnshire fenlands or Somerset Levels. Nevertheless, small wetland sites or deposits are widely dispersed across the county and have high significance for palaeoenvironmental work. These include, for example, marshes, natural ponds, fishponds and millponds, palaeochannels, mill leats and mill races, moats and organic deposits within cut-off river/stream meanders or pronounced meander loops.
