Abstract: |
<summary>An evaluation was undertaken at two separate crop mark sites, one to the east side and the other to the west side of Goldthorpe, both lying along the proposed route of a by-pass scheme. Fieldwalking, geophysical survey and trenching at the western site revealed a number of substantial archaeological features, including the side-ditches and hollow of a large droveway and two ditched-enclosures, possibly of Iron Age origin. Excavation of a trial-trench at the eastern site revealed deposits representing the remains of mostly modern human activity. A prehistoric/Roman droveway was shown to be also possibly present, although the ditches forming its boundaries did not survive as substantial undisturbed deposits.
