7400 Lincolnshire Long Barrows Assessment Project (Fieldwork contract)

This brief is for the contracted out element of the Lincolnshire Long Barrows Project, an Historic England initiative to better understand and manage the early Neolithic long barrows of Lincolnshire, the majority of which lie within the Lincolnshire Wolds Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty (AONB). Burial mounds are in general an elevated risk category of ancient monuments and the long barrows of Lincolnshire are particularly subject to pressures from modern cultivation. We are seeking to contract an organisation to conduct farm visits and field recoding on at least 100 sites in the historic County of Lincolnshire (i.e. including North and North East Lincolnshire), the majority of these sites will lie within the Lincolnshire Wolds AONB. On a targeted subset of sites the contractor is to carryout geophysical survey and on a subset of these targeted evaluation excavation.
