Ancient woodland is a valuable resource, and is of interest to a wide variety of people; conservationists, ecologists, historians and archaeologists. The importance of ancient woodland for its ecological value is well known, the complex web of species that inhabit it. But this volume also covers the ‘ghosts’ of generations of local people; the ways in which previous generations were intimately linked to woodland, through coppicing and management for timber and underwood. These uses have also affected the ecology and only through continuation of the methods can feature be maintained. This constant use has also endowed woodlands with archaeological interest that is also examined in papers contained in this book. Chapters include ‘Origins of Medieval Woodland’, case studies from Sheffield, North Derbyshire and Hampshire, and the Forestry Commission’s approach towards archaeology in woods and wooded landscapes.
