Description
A walkover survey was carried out following a desk-based assessment of existing records, on two parcels of land at Acharry Moor, prior to proposed planting. Substantial remains of farmsteads, enclosures and field systems were found, all apparently dating from the 19th century or later. Vegetation cover may have hidden other remains. Some buildings were in a reasonable state of preservation, and it is recommended that these, and an area around them, be excluded from the proposed planting scheme. <1>
