Highlights Tom Williamson's influential research on the development of England's landscapes from the Iron Age onward.
Tom Williamson is a landscape historian and archaeologist whose wide-ranging interests have long placed him at the forefront of research into many aspects of the English countryside from the Iron Age to the post-medieval period. His interests include the origins and development of systems of territorial organisation in early England; the history of trees and woodlands; medieval field systems and settlement patterns; and post-medieval estate landscapes and agricultural 'improvement'. This volume in our new Reflections series re-presents some of his most important contributions published in our Windgather Press imprint, which is devoted to a broad brushstroke approach to landscape studies, and celebrates his contribution to our understanding of the development of the English countryside. Each chapter includes a new introduction by the author.
