Title:Shorne Wood Country Park
Originator:Oxford Archaeology
Date:2005
Summary:A deskbased and site walkover assessment of Shorne Wood country Park and areas of Randall Wood and Brewers Wood which are planned for incorporation. The survey identified one possible Bronze Age barrow site, a possible Roman road, the known site of a Medieval manor with associated fishpnds, some minor post medieval parkland features, post medieval and early modern extraction sites, and some World War 2 barrack with possible defensive positions. The survey suggests that the remains are unlikely to a largely increased visitor numbers and proposes a low key management policy.
