  • Historic Environment Action Plan South-West Wight Coastal Zone
    Island Heritage Service Historic Environment Action Plan South-West Wight Coastal Zone Isle of Wight County Archaeology and Historic Environment Service October 2008 01983 823810 archaeology @iow.gov.uk Iwight.com HEAP for South-West Wight Coastal Zone INTRODUCTION This HEAP Area has been defined on the basis of geology, topography land use and settlement patterns which differentiate it from other HEAP areas. Essential characteristics of the South-West Wight Coastal Zone include the long coastline and cliffs containing fossils and archaeological material, the pattern of historic lanes, tracks and boundaries, field patterns showing evidence of open-field enclosure, valley-floor land, historic villages, hamlets and dispersed farmsteads, and vernacular architecture. The Military Road provides a scenic and historically significant route along the coast. The settlements of Mottistone, Hulverstone, Brighstone and Shorwell straddle the boundary between this Area and the West Wight Downland Edge & Sandstone Ridge. Historically these settlements exploited both Areas. For the sake of convenience these settlements are described in the HEAP Area document for the West Wight Downland Edge & Sandstone Ridge even where they fall partially within this Area. However, they are also referred to in this HEAP document where appropriate. This document considers the most significant features of the historic landscape, the most important forces for change, and the key management issues. Actions particularly relevant to this Area are identified from those listed in the Isle of Wight HEAP Aims, Objectives and Actions. ANALYSIS AND ASSESSMENT Location, Geology and Topography • Occupies strip of land between West Wight Downland Edge & Sandstone Ridge and coast. • Coastline within this Area stretches from Compton to Shepherd’s Chine and comprises soft, eroding cliffs with areas of landslip.

  • REAPPRAISAL of a COLLARED URN and OTHER POTTERY from BARROW 8, ASHEY DOWN, ISLE of WIGHT by DAVID J
    REAPPRAISAL OF A COLLARED URN AND OTHER POTTERY FROM BARROW 8, ASHEY DOWN, ISLE OF WIGHT By DAVID J. TOMALIN INTRODUCTION IN 1969, excavations on Ashey Down revealed some 240 potsherds lying on the buried land surface beneath Barrow 8 and scattered in and beyond the surrounding ditch. Forty-six sherds are of similar fabric and 9 bear impressed decoration which has been described as 'short, wide, whipped, cord, maggots'. At first sight these sherds resemble some Late Neolithic pottery from beneath two other Island round barrows at Niton and Arreton Down (Dunning 1932, 198-210; Alexander and Ozanne i960, 276-281). In the Ashey Down excavation report in these Proceedings (Drewett 1972) the assemblage is reported as Neolithic and described as probably representing simple bag-shaped bowls. In 1973 the writer examined the Ashey Down material while preparing a catalogue at Carisbrooke Castle Museum. This article seeks to record new information showing that at present there is little evidence for Neolithic occupation on Ashey Down. THE BRONZE AGE POTTERY (FIG. 1) In the excavation report 12 sherds illustrate the pre-barrow material from the site and are conveniendy numbered 1-12 (Drewett, Fig. 25). In this article they are prefixed D. Most important are sherds D 1-9 which are here recognised as a single vessel, Fig. 1, no. 1, comprising some 46 fragments. The critical sherds are D5 (upside-down) and D 7, both of which form the overhanging portion of a collar. Breaks in the sherds had occurred flush with the overhang and these details seem to have been misinterpreted in the original study, apparently for a rather unusual reason.
