Archaeology in Warwickshire Medieval Warwickshire | |
| Many of the archaeological sites visible in the modern landscape are associated with settlement and land use throughout the medieval period ( approx 1066 AD - 1500 AD). A number of towns and villages in Warwickshire are medieval in origin. Traces of these settlements survive in the form of earthworks (undulations in the ground surface), historic boundary and street patterns and occasionally as standing buildings. Some of the County's more dramatic structures are medieval in date. These include a number of castles, churches, houses and bridges. In many areas evidence of medieval agricultural cultivation survives as distinctive ridge and furrow earthworks. The earthworks and buildings of medieval Warwickshire form a distinctive link to the County's past. | |
