Abstract:		 Wessex Archaeology (WA) was commissioned by MWH Global to undertake a programme of archaeological survey on the site of a proposed sewage treatment works at Longnor, Staffordshire (National Grid Reference 408915, 364603). The site comprises pasture with extant earthworks immediately north of the River Manifold. The archaeological implications of the proposal could not be adequately assessed on the basis of available information, and therefore an archaeological evaluation by earthwork survey was requested by Sarah Whiteley, Senior Conservation Archaeologist for the Peak District National Park Authority (PDNPA). Earthwork survey was carried out using a Leica GNSS Viva GPS with survey points taken at the top-of-slope and break-of-slope on all visible earthworks within the footprint of development. From this a hachure plot was produced and tied in to an Ordnance Survey 1:2500 map of the area. Analysis of historic mapping indicates that the majority of the remaining earthworks are the remnants of field boundaries associated with the enclosures that were in existence before the River Manifold was canalised in the late 18th/early 19th century. A single square earthwork measuring 15 x 12m suggests a possible platform for a structure. The earthworks recorded are types represented elsewhere in the region. However, the direct association of these earthworks with the canalisation of the river makes them significant in a local context.
