“…The traditional archaeological perspective is inward-looking, where the monument is the important thing and where the main focus is on its evidential meaning and value. The other is an outward-looking landscape perspective, which involves accepting significant changes in, for example, the setting, because relationships to other objects and to contemporary processes are considered to be just as relevant as the historical (Burström, 2001;Karlsson, 2001;Nord, 2009;Quigley, 2010;Quigley & Shaw, 2010). A biographical landscape approach is applicable to describe the life history of an object and how it is part of different contexts through time and ascribed different meanings (Holtorf, 1998;Kopytoff, 1986).…”

Safeguarding Cultural Heritage in the Urban Fringe: The Role of Legibility

This paper discusses the condition and legibility of prehistoric grave mounds and their landscape context and assesses legibility for experts and lay people by combining archaeological landscape analysis and visual historicity landscape analysis. The paper compares, on the one hand, the heritage object with inherited meanings, and on the other, how it is perceived and understood. The results reveal that legibility in archaeological terms and in visual terms sometimes overlap, but sometimes diverge. Divergences occur when visual legibility of a grave mound is high but where the prehistoric context and legibility are changed. In situations where the context of the mound is preserved and legibility of the mound is high in visual terms, the two overlap. At the fringe, the monuments were mostly both non-visible and had a changed context. Accepting that the prehistoric context has changed, within landscape planning and heritage management, recognising cultural heritage as features in the present-day landscape can be one way forward in urban fringe areas.

“…A "Landscape Character Assessment" (tájkarakter-elemzés) és a "Historic Landscape Character Assessment" (történeti tájkarakter-elemzés) néven ismertté vált módszerek hazánkban csupán az utóbbi időszakban kezdtek elterjedni. A tájkarakter-elemzések keretei között Angliában és Skóciában már az 1990-es évektől kezdődően foglalkoznak a tájak múltbéli vagy jelenkori arculatának vizsgálatával, és ehhez nagyon kiterjedt, részletes módszertanok állnak rendelkezésre (Swanwick 2002;Quigley 2010) A kezdetben angol területeken kifejlesztett módszerek megfelelő alapot nyújtanak az ipari tájterhelés vizsgálatához a terepi állapotfelmérések folyamatában és az ipari objektumok tájképre gyakorolt hatásainak vizsgálata során.…”

BCLM: Forging Ahead: building a new urban history of the Black Country

The recreation of urban historical space in museums is inevitably a complex, large-scale endeavour bridging the worlds of academic and public history. BCLM: Forging Ahead at the Black Country Living Museum is a £23m project recreating a typical Black Country town post-World War II. This article uses case-studies of three buildings – a Civic Restaurant, a record shop and a pub – to argue that urban-historical research methodology and community engagement can both create a vivid sense of the past, and challenge pervasive prejudices. It also argues that such a collaborative and public project reveals much about the urban and regional nature of industrial areas like the Black Country in this pivotal historical moment.
