Evaluation of the archaeological and historic landscape by C Currie of CKC Archaeology, in conjunction with SyAS, for SCC, with reference to them being proposed as Areas of Historic Landscape Value. The survey recorded a series of features, including a number of potential barrow sites (there is at least one authenticated prehistoric barrow on Cockcrow Hill), at least five historic ponds, and a large area of linear earthworks, possibly the remains of quarrying. Other sites recorded included a rare early 19th century semaphore tower, and a number of boundary earthworks, some of which are reputed to date to the Saxon period. The area is largely one of woodland today with only about a fifth of the total land area being heathland. (333)
