ST Catherine's Windermere, Cumbria. Historic Landscape Survey

Oxford Archaeology North (OA North) was invited by the National Trust to
undertake an historic landscape survey of St Catherine’s, Windermere, Cumbria (SD
4090 9970 centre). This was intended to record and evaluate the archaeological and
historical features within the 32ha (0.32sq km) of pasture, woodland and parkland,
and to inform the future management of the estate. The project was funded by the
Local Heritage Initiative, which enables local communities to gain an awareness and
develop a sense of ownership of their local heritage. To this end, the project from the
outset, incorporated the involvement of members of the local community who were
trained in documentary and survey techniques and who actively participated in every
aspect of the project.
