Abstract:		 The majority of the proposed pipeline route has been found to follow a turnpike road, established as such in the mid 18th century, within a wider hinterland of agricultural land utilised as such perhaps from as early as the Roman period, though a Mesolithic pit and stray finds of the Bronze Age have also been found in the study area. Towards the eastern extent of the proposed pipeline route, a boundary ditch, an enclosure, hut circle and post holes have been identified and are likely to be of Roman origin, and a Roman road may extend into the area. A possible early medieval large timber building has also been found in the vicinity. Friar's Walk, to the east of the proposed pipeline route has been suggested to indicate a medieval friary in the vicinity, and the route itself may lead to a river crossing close to the proposed pipeline route. Features relating to a former railway line which ran within the southern part of the field north of Low Road and south of the River Derwent are likely to be directly impacted upon by the development. At the western extent of the proposed pipeline route, a quarrying complex had been established by 1866, of which the present Kirk Cross Quarry is a surviving trace. This study has found that the proposed pipeline route would result in a limited impact on heritage significance in relation to the route of a former railway line. This level of impact may require further archaeological work prior to any groundworks occurring, dependent upon advice from Cumbria County Council's Historic Environment Team. There remains the potential for further as-yet unknown remains to survive within the area of direct impact, south of the River Derwent and north of Low Road. This is based on the recent discovery of features of the Mesolithic and Roman eras and the potential for features relating to an early medieval large timber building and possible medieval friary
