Abstract
The North West Water estate of Haweswater, Cumbria is almost wholly contained within the
Lake District National Park. It is a largely upland landscape centred around the Haweswater
Reservoir. It contains a number of known archaeological sites including 20 scheduled
monuments. Such Cumbrian upland landscapes have considerable potential for preserved evidence
of prehistoric activity, particularly from the Bronze Age, but also contain numerous other
remains including Romano-British, medieval and post medieval. The Haweswater Estate is likely
to contains numerous remains of past industrial activity, particularly mineral extraction.
