项目摘要

Many fields of study and practice share an interest in the concept of landscape, including archaeology, ecology and nature, health and well-being, tourism and the arts. However, policy makers are not always very good at working across those disciplinary boundaries, even within the shared frame of landscape. Improving cross-disciplinary working is essential if, for example, we are to develop joined-up conservation approaches that can enhance both the natural and the historic environment, understand how communities value their local heritage, or manage the processes of change that are inevitable in a landscape.The proposed Lincolnshire Wolds Landscape Network starts from the European Landscape Convention's definition of landscape as 'an area perceived by people whose character is the result of the action and interaction of natural and/or human factors'; in other words, it has cultural, natural and aesthetic or psychological aspects. The network will explore and promote the shared conceptual space of landscape from a historic environment perspective, with an emphasis on building connections between archaeological, ecological and well-being approaches in order to deliver a range of public benefits in a significant and high-quality rural landscape that is relatively neglected in research terms.The unique chalk landscape of the Lincolnshire Wolds, which forms one of Natural England's National Character Areas (NCAs) and much of which is designated as an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty (AONB), has a distinctive topography that is the legacy of episodes of glaciation. Although relatively secluded, the Wolds have a long history of human land use. Their historic value has long been recognised, with the rich archaeological resource of the area defined in the AONB's Management Plan as one of its outstanding qualities. Highlights include Neolithic and Bronze Age barrows, cropmarks of Romano-British settlements and earthwork remains of deserted medieval villages (DMVs). However, this resource remains poorly understood. Compared to other chalk landscapes there has been little research funding for investigative work, which has been sporadic and focused on specific locations or types of monument. While enough has been done to recognise the huge potential of the Wolds' heritage, the expansion of knowledge has not matched that seen for other areas, and we do not yet have a coherent picture of human settlement and land-use over the long term. There is great willingness among local stakeholders to do more work.The network aims to bring together existing knowledge of the historic environment, identify gaps and develop a strategy to address them. Most significantly, it will go on to explore how better understanding of past land-use and environments can inform decision-making about the present landscape. How can we improve consideration of cultural heritage in conservation initiatives, such as ensuring flood management is sensitive to the history of the landscape? And enhance the well-being of local communities and visitors to the Wolds, e.g. ensuring better provision of access to the kinds of heritage which have value to different groups? The key outcomes of the network will be practical strategies for addressing such questions, which will frame the co-creation of an innovative and focused Wolds landscape project. Crucially, the network will include national policy-makers and international colleagues as well as local organisations, to ensure that methods developed during the project will be applicable to other rural areas across England and beyond.The network will convene at two meetings, with preparatory work and reporting undertaken in each case, and hold informal discussions throughout the period of operation. Meeting 1 will be a one-day seminar focused on understanding the historic environment, while meeting 2 will be a two-day landscape forum, integrating archaeological understanding with the cross-disciplinary themes.

许多研究和实践领域都对景观的概念感兴趣，包括考古学、生态与自然、健康与福祉、旅游和艺术。然而，政策制定者并不总是非常擅长跨越这些学科的界限，甚至在共同的框架内也是如此。例如，如果我们要开发联合保护方法来改善自然和历史环境，了解社区如何评价当地遗产，或管理景观中不可避免的变化过程，那么改善跨学科工作是必不可少的。拟议的林肯郡世界景观网络始于欧洲景观公约对景观的定义，即：景观是人们感知的一个区域，其特征是自然和/或人为因素的行动和相互作用的结果；换句话说，它具有文化、自然和审美或心理方面。该网络将从历史环境的角度探索和促进共享的景观概念空间，重点是在考古、生态和福祉方法之间建立联系，以便在研究中相对被忽视的重要和高质量的农村景观中提供一系列公共利益。林肯郡沃兹独特的粉笔景观形成了自然英格兰的国家特征区域(NCA)之一，其中大部分被指定为杰出自然美景区域(AONB)，具有独特的地形，是冰川事件的遗产。虽然相对与世隔绝，但沃尔兹山脉有着悠久的人类土地利用历史。它们的历史价值早已得到认可，该地区丰富的考古资源在AONB的管理计划中被定义为其杰出品质之一。亮点包括新石器时代和青铜时代的手推车，罗马-不列颠定居点的庄稼和废弃的中世纪村庄(DMV)的土方遗迹。然而，人们对这一资源仍然知之甚少。与其他粉笔景观相比，用于调查工作的研究资金很少，调查工作一直是零星的，集中在特定位置或类型的纪念碑上。尽管已经做了足够多的工作来认识到沃尔兹遗产的巨大潜力，但知识的扩展还没有达到其他地区的水平，我们还没有对人类住区和土地利用的长期前景有一个连贯的认识。当地利益攸关方非常愿意做更多的工作。该网络旨在汇集对历史环境的现有知识，找出差距，并制定解决这些差距的战略。最重要的是，它将继续探索如何更好地了解过去的土地利用和环境，从而为有关当前景观的决策提供信息。我们如何在保护倡议中更好地考虑文化遗产，例如确保洪水管理对景观的历史敏感？并增进当地社区和世界游客的福祉，例如确保更好地利用对不同群体有价值的各种遗产？该网络的主要成果将是解决这些问题的实际战略，这将为共同创建一个创新和重点突出的世界景观项目奠定基础。至关重要的是，该网络将包括国家政策制定者、国际同事以及当地组织，以确保在项目期间开发的方法将适用于英格兰和英格兰以外的其他农村地区。该网络将召开两次会议，每次都进行准备工作和报告，并在整个运作期间进行非正式讨论。会议1将是一个为期一天的研讨会，重点是了解历史环境，而会议2将是一个为期两天的景观论坛，将考古理解与跨学科主题结合起来。
