How when did COSMIC 2 come about - Unitof1 - 23rd August 2010

Does anybody know if this project has started-was it open to tender?

http://www.e-a-a.org/Main%20report.pdf

Not sure where it is being funded from
http://randd.defra.gov.uk/Default.aspx?Menu=Menu&Module=ProjectList&Completed=0&ContractorID=1180

does anybody know if the

[SIZE=3]Appendix 2 of the report[/SIZE]
[SIZE=3]"Site summary management sheets (2a) and map of each site showing fieldnumbers (2b)" [/SIZE]
[SIZE=3]that goes with this report has been published and is available somewhere?. [/SIZE]

[SIZE=3]Its interesting to note that this report has not been put out on Defras or English heritages web sites but on some european political site.[/SIZE]

-they made claims about the preservation of sites but refused to say where they were. Looks like they are doing it again this time to justify stewardship schemes which only last until 2013.

How when did COSMIC 2 come about - Unitof1 - 3rd September 2010

Hello Hosty

While we on the cowboy side of dodgy commercial archaeology struggle to survive and the threads of bajr are awash with amateurs that we should spare some time and faint praise for the efforts of English heritage and all those involved in the MARS project, sorry heritage at risk project, sorry Management of archaeological sites in arable landscapes sorry cosmic project, sorry trials to identify, sorry cosmic2 project and what ever project these boffins come up with next that are based on the novel observation that archaeology disappears before our eyes due to cuddly farming practises.

I would particularly like to suggest that all the pensions of the east midlands branch of eh be extra thickly gold plated after their efforts in reducing the risk to archaeology by 4% and rewarding the owners of three scheduled monuments with ?180k.


[SIZE=3]
Quote: [SIZE=3][SIZE=3]Approximately 1 in 6 (17.2%) of England’s 19,731 scheduled monuments are at risk. In the East Midlands, this falls to 7.7% (117 sites).

The total at risk has fallen by 140 (4.0%) since 2009, 13 (10%) of which were in this region.

Arable ploughing and unrestricted plant, scrub or tree growth account for nearly two thirds of sites at risk. In our region the proportion at risk from cultivation rises to nearly 80%.

Nationally, 82% of scheduled monuments at risk are in private ownership, rising to 94% (110) in the East Midlands.

Of the ?450k offered to owners of scheduled monuments at risk in 2009/10, ?180k was awarded to 3 sites in the East Midlands chosen on grounds of their size and complexity.

And this is just the effort for scheduled monuments. God knows what wonders they have done for the average bit of archaeology in a field. I do worry that with the price of wheat rising beyond the ?150 a ton that their efforts may have distorted the market and have led to food shortage riots across the world.

For all you landowners out there if you want some English heritage/nature/defra attention it pays to have a monument at risk in your best wheat field.
