An Upland Biography

...records with skill and in some detail, ordinary folk leaving a series of small, but clearly defined stone legacies (if you have the experience and patience to see it), built one stone upon a stone. * Antiquaries Journal *
Well written, the book is compulsive reading. It is well illustrated throughout, and features a series of excellent colour landscape photographs. Detailed appendices provide analysis of material culture identified through excavation, which work well with the individual chapters by offering detailed studies without losing the broader focus of discussion. This publication will be of interest to anyone engaged with later prehistoric archaeology or, more specifically, who appreciates the world-class archaeology of the uplands of Britain. * Current Archaeology *
The book combines detailed description and discussion of stone features and excavated contexts with generalised, informal material that will appeal to a non-specialist audience… the Gardom’s Edge project has set a benchmark in a continuing campaign to develop our understanding of upland landscapes not only in this region, but throughout the country. * Proceedings of the Prehistoric Society *
…the work undertaken to produce this publication is extremely interesting, detailed and informative. It will undoubtedly prove to be an important reference document for anyone researching the prehistoric impact on upland heathlands. * Archaeological Journal *
