Field Visit (4 September 2013 - 17 September 2013)
NG 4200 6360 A desk-based assessment and walkover survey was carried out, 4–17 September 2013, in advance of the construction of two new mini hydro-electric schemes. The survey identified a number of new archaeological sites including post-medieval farmsteads, shielings, boundary dykes, a stone-built bridge and associated track revetments, and an area of rig and furrow cultivation. Mitigation measures were proposed to safeguard the sites.
