Description

The plan is entitled 'Battle Abbey study - site appraisal' and shows the site of the abbey, the village and the battlefield. Contours are marked, as are two areas of high ground significant to the battle. Viewpoints are indicated, and 'divisive elements' (such as fences) and 'distractive/ incongruous elements' (such as a modern road) are marked. The plan is date-stamped April 1985.
