| Title | Survey of Little Skirtful of Stones, Burley in Wharfedale |
| Description | ASWYAS carried out archaeological surveys of six prehistoric scheduled monuments on Ilkley and Burley Moors . Field work was undertaken in December 2009, February and March 2010. ASWYAS were commissioned by Natural England as part of a Higher Level Agri environment scheme (HLS) to inform the HLS scheme for the sites which aimed to improve the management and condition of the historic and natural environment on the moors. The survey matched the standards of a Level III survey as defined by English Heritage (2007).
The survey work was undertaken using a survey grade Trimble 5800 GPS device using a virtual reference station (VRS). Each site was photographed using a high resolution digital camera.
The little Skirtful of Stones was viewed to be at medium risk with limited visitor damage/erosion. On going monitoring of condition was recommended with discussion between the landowner and English Heritage. |
