Abstract
Research has been done in Meseta Ibérica to characterise its landscape. Meseta Ibérica is a biosphere reserve. It is located in the North-East part of Portugal and includes the territory of Portugal and Spain. Due to its natural variety, preserving and valuing this region is essential. Therefore, a detailed survey was carried out to gather data about the urban landscape. The analysis of the results of the surveys will guide the managing entities in their decisions. This team was focused on studying the urban areas of Meseta Ibérica from a village-scale perspective. The analysis of the results of the surveys was done on six villages that were chosen as references to guarantee a manageable process. These six villages are Atenor, Rio de Onor and Bemposta, from Portugal, and Fariza, Riomanzanas and San Martín de Castañeda, from Spain. Exhaustive fieldwork was done to collect several technical data concerning the buildings of these villages. This paper is focused on Riomanzanas village. Maps of the building type, utilisation type and conservation stage are delivered. Some data on the most relevant building details are also given. It was concluded that there is an appropriate amount of intact vernacular construction and that this village is perfectly merged with the landscape.
