Abstract: |
In May 2012Archaeological Research Services Ltd were commissioned by Carsington Wind Energy Ltd to undertake an archaeological watching brief at Carsington Pastures, Derbyshire. The monitoring was carried out during ground works for the erection of four wind turbines, along with the topsoil strip of an access route with branches to each turbine and an area to be used as the site compound. The area contains many disused lead mining shafts, however none were impacted upon by the works. An area of limestone debris was uncovered at the area of turbine 2 and a rough disused trackway corresponding to an assumed trackway on a prior topographical survey undertaken by Archaeological Research Services was uncovered. No other features of archaeological significance or buried land surfaces were revealed. |
