Figure 2.5: ‘The great valley of the Don’, facing southwest from Melton Warren, South Yorkshire, along the middle Don
Valley between Old Denaby (left) and Mexborough (right). The confluence of the Don with the river Deame is to the
immediate left of the bottom left hand corner. In the middle distance is Rotherham (left) and Sheffield (centre). Behind
is just visible the Sheaf valley, with the east facing flanks of the southern Pennines and the watershed of the Don
catchment rising behind. Source: author.............................................................................8
Figure 2.6: Westwoodside and Haxey, at the southern point of the Isle of Axholme, North Lincolnshire, facing north from
Gringley-on-the-Hill, North Notinghamshire. The water tower at the right of the photo marks the watershed between
the Trent drainage basin (right, off photo) and that of the Idle (Don, left). Significant quantities of data, particularly
from the Bronze Age, has been recovered from the locale of Westwoodside and Haxey within the Don drainage basin,
but not from the watershed itself, which arguably served as a threshold or boundary between places. Source: author..9
Figure 2.7: Map of Britain from 1540, based on Ptolemy (after Whitaker 1933)........................................11
Figure 2.8: Wincobank Hill, Sheffield, facing northeast from the bank of the River Don. Wincobank hill is the site an Iron
Age hill fort, and was also the scene of activity during the Mesolithic period. The hill is situated close to the confluence
of the Don with the River Rother. Source: author....................................................................12

author..........................................................................................................13
Figure 2.10: The unremarkable looking low prominence of Mill Hill, Crowle, in the background is surrounded by the levels.
Crowle is thus much more prominent than it at first appears, and can be seen from a long distance across the flat
expanse. For most of the study period in question, that expanse consisted of extensive reed beds, marshes and areas of
standing water, and later the raised mires (see chapter five). At certain times of the year the water levels would have
been high enough for it to have had the appearance of an island, like the ‘Isle’ of Axholme to its immediate south. Such
a place would have been distinctive and easily remembered by knowledgeable inhabitants. Data stretching from the
Mesolithic to the Roman period has been recovered from Mill Hill and the vicinity. Source: author...................13
Figure 2.11: Deepcar, South Yorkshire, facing south southeast along the upper Don valley from Hunshelf Bank. The well
known Early Mesolithic site is located to the immediate left of the photo, overlooking the Don on a precipitous ledge.
The confluence of the Don with the Little Don is to the left of centre, a little downstream from the Early Mesolithic site.
