This unit examines the background for the protection and management of historic and archaeological landscapes, from the planning system through to international protection (such as World Heritage Site status), to wider methods such as conservation plans, restoration schemes (especially gardens), funding opportunities, access and stakeholder participation.
Aims:
Upon completion of this Unit students will:
Lectures, fieldtrips and museum visits (NB. the number of hours as reflected below are required in order to cover the subject sufficiently and approximately half of the hours are fieldtrips or site visits).
The production of a Conservation/Management Plan for a selected site or landscape (3000 - 5000 words). The assessment includes practical research, such as site visits and documentary research in the National Monument Record Office, local Historic Environment Offices and Public Record Offices, more than is generally required for MA Archaeoology essays, therefore, a range within a word limit is necessary.
