  • Session 1 Time Travel in the Peak District from the Mesolithic to the Neolithic Aims of the Session Curriculum Links Resources
    Stone Age to Iron Age KS2 Session 1 Time travel in the Peak District from the Mesolithic to the Neolithic Aims of the session The aim of this session is to explore the evidence of life in the local area from the Mesolithic to the Neolithic. Gather evidence in the gallery to create a video back at school about life in the Mesolithic times. Curriculum links This session will support pupils to develop a chronologically secure knowledge and understanding of British, local and world history, establishing clear narratives within and across the periods they study. They should note connections, contrasts and trends overtime and develop the appropriate use of historical terms. They should regularly address and sometimes devise historically valid questions about change, cause, similarity and difference, and significance. They should construct informed responses that involve thoughtful selection and organisation of relevant historical information. They should understand how our knowledge of the past is constructed from a range of sources. A visit to the Wonders of the Peak gallery will contribute to both an overview and a depth study to help pupils understand both the long arc of development and complexity of specific aspects of the content.

  • PS Signpost Bull Ring
    The Bull Ring Henge Signposts to Prehistory Location: The Bull Ring (SK 0785 7823) is adjacent to the village of Dove Holes in Derbyshire, just north of Buxton. Main period: Neolithic–Bronze Age Access & ownership: The site is Scheduled. At the southern end of the village, a track leads to a children’s playground and to the henge, which lies on the far side of a playing field. Parking is available at the end of the track. The Bull Ring is a henge – a large, circular earthwork with an external bank – a type of ceremonial monument that can be dated to the late Neolithic-Chalcolithic periods. Sited on the NW edge of the Derbyshire limestone plateau, it stands at the junction of three valleys and perhaps provided an accessible meeting point or trade centre for prehistoric communities in the area. In plan and dimensions, the henge is almost identical to Arbor Low, just 17.5 km to the SW although the orientation of its entrances is different. It has an external diameter of 93–90 m, with the bank and internal ditch surrounding an oval area (Fig. 2). The rock-cut ditch measures 8–12 m across and is between 0.5 and 1m deep. Excavations in 1949 (Alcock 1950) showed that it was originally 5–6.5 m wide and between 1.2 and 2.1m deep. The surrounding bank is now about 1m high and between 9 and 11m wide; it was originally 2 m high and 5.5–7 Fig. 1. Plan with location of Trench 1 (see Fig.

  • The Neolithic of the Peak District: a Lefebvrian Social Geography Approach to Spatial Analysis
    THE NEOLITHIC OF THE PEAK DISTRICT: A LEFEBVRIAN SOCIAL GEOGRAPHY APPROACH TO SPATIAL ANALYSIS by ROBIN BRYN WEAVER A thesis submitted to the University of Birmingham for the degree of DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY Institute of Archaeology and Antiquity College of Arts and Law The University of Birmingham May 2012 University of Birmingham Research Archive e-theses repository This unpublished thesis/dissertation is copyright of the author and/or third parties. The intellectual property rights of the author or third parties in respect of this work are as defined by The Copyright Designs and Patents Act 1988 or as modified by any successor legislation.

ABSTRACT In this thesis I construct, implement and evaluate a Lefebvrian model of space and society suitable for archaeology, using the Neolithic Peak District as my case study. Archaeologists have largely overlooked the work of French Marxist philosopher and social theorist Henri Lefebvre or come to it second-hand, meaning that his dialectical model of the production of space has never been used to understand prehistoric society. My thesis demonstrates the value to archaeology of such an approach by applying Lefebvre’s three-part dialectical model of the production of space to the monuments and landscape of the Neolithic Peak. In doing so, it challenges simplistic binary readings of social space, replacing them with a Lefebvrian social geography approach to space.

  • The Stones of Stenness, Orkney by J N Graham Ritchie with an Account of the Stone of Odin by Ernest W Marwick
    The Stones of Stenness, Orkney by J N Graham Ritchie with an account of the Stone of Odin by Ernest W Marwick INTRODUCTION The central bowl of West Mainland Orkney, encircled by low rolling hills, encloses the adjoining Lochs of Harray and Stenness; separated by the promontories of Stenness to the SE and Brodgar to the NW, the lochs meet only at the Bridge of Brodgar which spans the narrows and links two of the most important assemblages of prehistoric monuments in Britain (fig 1). To the NW are the ditched cairn of the Ring of Bookan (ORK 45), the class II henge monument known as the Ring of Brodgar, a large number of mounds and several standing stones; to the SE are the class I henge monument of the Stones of Stenness, a series of standing stones and, 1-2 km to the E, the magnificent chambered tomb of Macs Howe (ORK 36). The Standing Stones of Stenness (NGR HY 307125) dominate the W side of the SE promontory and are situated in a level arable field close to the shore at a height of about 4-0 m OD (pis 3a and 4a). Two existing outlying stones, the Watch Stone and the Barnhouse Stone, may be associated with the monument, the former 170 m to the NNW and the latter 700 m to the SE (pi 3b and d; RCAMS 1946, 304-5, nos 879 and 880). The stump of another standing stone, situated about 12-8 m SSW of the Watch Stone, was discovered in 1930 but is no longer visible; measuring 1-4 m by 0-13 m and at least 0-9 m in height, 'it had rested in a hole which had been cut in the shaly rock to receive it, and it was packed at the base with small stones' (RCAMS 1946, 320, no.

  • November Update Roads, Villa and Quarries in Our Previous Report We
    November update Roads, villa and quarries In our previous report we dealt with the unusually substantial road which exists in Hag Wood on Longway Bank, the former turnpike from Wirksworth to Whatstandwell. We considered, that, if Roman as we believe, this road would perhaps have some destination on the east bank of the Derwent or should at least pass some known find sites and that there appeared to be no major ones. To recap from the previous report: “We have found that there are no pre-turnpike maps of (for example) Crich and what few Roman finds there are from that village are unenlightening. South Wingfield has much the same issue and of the small fort at Pentrich (“Castle Hill Camp”) no east-west road is known to cross Ryknield Street there, at this present time. Indeed, carrying on in a generally easterly direction there is precious little before you get to the Roman site at Farnsfield and then the vexillation fortress at Osmanthorpe.” Section of the road found at Hag Wood However, there have been some further small finds in North Wingfield recorded in the PAS database and my particular attention has been drawn to the recently discovered Roman site between Ridgeway and Buckland Hollow, that is the “suspected” Roman villa at Heage, which yielded over 3,000 small coin forgeries (Barbarous Radiates) of the AD 280s. Given the nature of the finds of building materials at that site, a villa was suggested (though not yet proven) and a particularly fascinating piece of the jigsaw was that the sandstone roof tiles found there were the same as the sandstone roof tiles found at the Scow Brook villa site at Carsington.

The sequence of timber circle - henge monument - stone circle is widely accepted. This is in spite of the reality that the datable evidence and contextual data upon which this series is based has seldom been subjected to any real form of critical evaluation. The aim of this research was to determine whether this order could still be deemed tenable in light of contemporary research and the continued advances that have been achieved relating to the application of radiocarbon dating. The findings of this study demonstrated that sufficient contextual data exists to enable phases of construction to be identified. However rarely did these data appear to support the currently accepted chronologies. Indeed more commonly they alluded to an alternative series, one that demonstrated how some individual site sequences may have been previously misinterpreted. This study has also proven how methodological and interpretative weaknesses, relating to the use of radiocarbon dating, have created a quantifiable degree of accuracy between individual radiocarbon determinations and their ability to be reliably associated with the event or act that they have been used to date.
