Not if you use the definition in the evidence thesaurus which is : Monument existing as an upstanding earthwork, ditch or artificial watercourse, or as a low stone built feature not covered by the other categories. A quarry is not any of those, its a big 'ole generally. : ) best wishes Nick Boldrini Historic Environment Record Officer Heritage Section Countryside Service North Yorkshire County Council Direct Dial (01609) 532331 http://www.northyorks.gov.uk/environment/heritage.shtm#Archaeology North Yorkshire County Council has the right and does inspect E-Government mails sent from and to its computer system. >>> [log in to unmask] 05/10/2004 12:33:14 >>> A quarry is surely quite literally an earthwork.

Its not quite a modified surface, enhanced natural feature, or earthwork. Any ideas? TIme for a new term - Human ALtered area? Or something? Assuming any of you think about such things... thanks best wishes Nick Boldrini Historic Environment Record Officer Heritage Section Countryside Service North Yorkshire County Council Direct Dial (01609) 532331 http://www.northyorks.gov.uk/environment/heritage.shtm#Archaeology North Yorkshire County Council has the right and does inspect E-Government mails sent from and to its computer system.
