Abstract
 | An inventory of woodland sites over 2 hectares in England which are thought to have been in existence since at least 1600 AD. The AWI was begun by the Nature Conservancy Council in 1981 and has been continued by its successor, English Nature. The data gathered includes the name of the site, its location, the current area, the area cleared of woodland since surveying was conducted for the Ordnance Survey First Series 1:25,000 maps, the areas of ancient semi-natural woodland and ancient replanted woodland, and whether the site is associated with a Site of Special Scientific Interest. NDAD currently holds a single dataset consisting of AWI data extracted from English Nature's information system in 2001-2002. |
