This data layer identifies a number of known historic environment features and landscapes that retain a physical presence, but which are not protected by a statutory designation. The data layers have been drawn from the Regional Historical Environment Records (HERs) of the four Welsh Archaeological Trusts (WATs) and cover the whole of Wales. Their boundaries reflect the expected limits of these historic environment features both above and below ground. Where areas of two or more features overlap or are closely adjacent these have been amalgamated to form a single management area containing more than one feature. As archaeological work progresses each year, and new features are identified, new areas will be added. All grant funded woodland creation proposals require an assessment by the relevant Archaeological Trust. This data layer flags the presence of currently mapped HEFs that are likely to be of interest. See GN002 for contact details.
