摘要罗金厄姆森林是北安普敦郡中世纪森林中研究最深入的森林。在中世纪时期,它看到了广泛的农业清除,但大片的林地幸存下来,这些林地被越来越集中地管理。虽然主要是成核的,一个分散的组成部分,解决模式没有发展在森林中,这是没有看到在冠军景观的县。该地区支持一系列工业生产,特别是重要的铁工业,以当地矿石为基础,至少在中世纪时期,由大量的木炭工业提供燃料。地质学是撒克逊时期林地分布的主要决定因素,但在征服后的时期,林地的生存受到一系列土地保有权和其他因素的影响,包括对鹿的管理以及大规模铁和木炭生产的存在。
Abstract Rockingham Forest is the most intensively studied of Northamptonshire's medieval forests. It saw extensive clearance for agriculture in the medieval period but large tracts of woodland survived and these were increasingly intensively managed. Though primarily nucleated, a dispersed component to the settlement pattern did develop in the forest which was not seen in the champion landscapes of the county. The area supported a range if industrial production, in particular an important iron industry, based upon the local ores, and fuelled, at least in the medieval period, by a substantial charcoal industry. Geology was the primary determinant of the distribution of woodland in the Saxon period, but at the local level survival of woodland in the post-Conquest period was influenced by a range of tenurial and other factors, including management for deer and the presence of large scale iron and charcoal production.
