Private housing estate including a variety of dwelling types. This area was subjected to a programme of archaeological assessment, evaluation and excavation prior to development (Fenton-Thomas 2006). This work demonstrated evidence of occupation from the middle to late Saxon period, a high status stone building to the north of the site by the 12th century and post-medieval industrial activity, perhaps associated with a nearby manorial complex. This activity came to a close at around 1680, probably contemporaneously with the construction of Sprotbrough Hall and the emparkment of the surrounding countryside. These findings add weight to the suspicion hinted at by the 'burgh' place name that the origins of Sprotbrurgh may originate in a defensible Saxon settlement which continued to be occupied throughout the medieval period, with a focus around the area of the church and probably surrounded by the medieval cross sites recorded on the SMR. A high status complex (probably a manor) lay nearby or on this site until construction of Sprotbrough Hall in 1682 and the corresponding gentrification of the village landscape. By 1709 Kip and Kynyff's illustration of Sprotbrough Park shows that this area was occupied by orchards, kitchen gardens and the surviving reused stable block. Excavation and map evidence show that these land uses continued to dominate this area until the construction of the present development - although between 1930 and 2006 this pattern was characterised by disuse and dereliction rather than maintenance and use. Partial legibility from the retention reuse and restoration of the stable block.
