Archaeological assessment by N Bannister for the Woodlands Trust. Areas of both Glover’s Wood and Edolphs Copse were in use as fields at some time during the medieval and post-medieval periods before they were abandoned and the land reoccupied by trees. Wood banks and field boundaries were the predominant archaeological features revealed. While those in Glover’s Wood are visible, the department divisions in Edolphs Copse have been obscured by shallow stone quarrying. Ricketts Wood is a remnant of ancient woodland, and little of archaeological interest was recorded.
