Abstract:		 The assessment was undertaken as part of an Environmental Impact Assessment to outline the archaeological potential of the proposed residential and commercial development area. The area around Bessacarr included several archaeological sites of regional and national importance, including the Roman fort at Rossington and the known sites of Roman pottery manufacturing in the South Doncaster Region (at Cantley, Bessacarr, Rossington etc.). Sherds of Roman pottery had been found within the proposed development area and the woodland surviving within the site boundaries was listed on the South Yorkshire SMR as 'remnants of Ancient Woodland', predating any agricultural activity in the area. The land at Bessacarr in the medieval period was 'one of several morasses of about four thousand acres in extent lying south of Doncaster and extending toward the villages of Loversall and Rossington'.
