Description

This report covers work carried out at the request of Aigas Community Forest Trust. The forest was bought in April 2015 from the Forestry Commission under the Forestry Land Scheme. The Forest Trust is required to undertake an archaeological survey of the forest as part of its scoping for a Forest Design Plan. A desk-based assessment was followed by a walk-over survey. A variety of features were identified, many of which relate to the early years of the forest in mid-19th century. <1>
