Abstract:		 Desk-based assessment of a site proposed for reclamation work was undertaken. Proposals included the removal of an existing tip, the recovery of coal and the re-opening of a canal tunnel. The study area lay within the South Yorkshire Coal Field, a poorly understood but important archaeological landscape with known human occupation from the Mesolithic to the present. Twenty-five sites of interest were identified within the study area, several of which lay wholly or partially within the proposed development area. Those within the proposal site comprised standing buildings associated with Kiveton Park Colliery (1866-1994), the site of the early post-medieval Hard Mill, the site of the early post-medieval Wales Colliery, the line of the Killamarsh Branch of the Manchester, Sheffield and Lincolnshire Railway (1851-1994), the line of the Norwood Tunnel of the Chesterfield Canal (1771-1908), the remains of canal locks, a well and building seen on early maps, the probable site of Wales Carr, a vanished landscape feature, and the findspot of eleven sherds of Romano-British pottery. The lack of sites pre-dating the medieval period may have reflected a bias of modern recovery conditions; it was noted that the findings of the report could not be seen as an exhaustive record of the archaeological remains within the proposed development area, and that potential existed for the presence of unknown sites of all periods.
