Abstract:
The evaluation of 25 hectares of land to the north of Durkar considered the archaeological and historical importance of this area of West Yorkshire. The archaeological data for the area of the proposed extension in the form of aerial photographic evidence and find spots was non-existent at the time of the survey. The presence of Mesolithic flint assemblages to the north-east of the site and the fact that the extension area stood on similar geology and topography, i.e river terraces, may have indicated the potential for similar discoveries. A fieldwalking programme did not reveal any Mesolthic flints though. The presence of a very small number of Roman pottery sherds suggested limited activity which may have been associated with anomalies located duirng a geophysical survey. [AIP]
