The Archaeology of Rabbit Warrens by Tom Williamson

72 pages Interesting look at a method of rabbit farming that left behind curious earthworks.Their form and function puzzle modern day archaeologists.Although rabbit warrens once dotted the British countryside there is little written about how they were started or operated. This author digs into the mystery of this poorly documented type of rabbit farming that managed to survive over five centuries until the 1954 Myxamotosis pandemic.
