MEM22508 - Post-medieval mound on Deer Park (Monument)

A mutilated well defined mound was noted during a non-intrustive walkover survey of the proposed mire restoration area on Deer Park, undertaken by South West Archaeology as part of the Exmoor Mires Project. This was noted as possibly forming a linear extension of MEM22507; it is bisected by a drainage ditch. [1] The Historic Environment Officer for the Exmoor Mires Project undertook a non- intrustive walkover survey of the proposed mire restoration area on Deer Park, which included this site. Noted was a dump of material most likely associated with excavation of an adjacent post-medieval drainage ditch. [2]
