Abstract: |
The desk-based assessment of a former factory site indicated that the site consisted of meadows and arable fields in the medieval and post-medieval periods, probably with some structures along the Penistone Road North frontage by the 17th century. Homesteads and outbuildings were located along this frontage by 1797, and cottages and two public houses were recorded in the 19th century. The Travellers' Inn survives at 72 Penistone Road North, the exterior apparently of 19th-century date, possibly with elements of a late 17th-century house retained within the building. The inn is of local historic interest, but is not a listed building. It is the only historic structure surviving within the site. There is the potential for the survival of sub-surface remains of 17th- to 19th-century cottages and other structures within the site. The presence of alluvial deposits across the site suggests that deeply buried prehistoric to Roman remains could survive within the site. The construction of a factory on the site in the 1930s-40s may have impacted on shallow sub-surface remains, but more deeply-buried deposits could survive in good condition. |
