Abstract:		 The results of an archaeological evaluation carried out by South West Archaeology Ltd. (SWARCH) for a site at Norrington Yard, South Molton, Devon, to inform the future use of the site. This work was preceded by a desk-based assessment, walkover survey and heritage impact assessment by SWARCH (2017). Six trenches were excavated across the site targeting areas of higher archaeological potential: the footprint of lost historic buildings; the lines of burgage plot boundaries; and less disturbed areas. However, Norrington Yard has been thoroughly landscaped. The ground has been levelled and made up, on more than one occasion across parts of the site, during the 20th century. Extensive services including electric cables and drains criss-cross the site and follow the line of earlier boundaries, including the posited medieval burgage plot boundaries. Apart from sporadic debris within made-ground deposits, there does not appear to be any surviving below-ground remains of the buildings depicted on historic mapping across the western part of the site. The dating evidence recovered from this debris was post-medieval to modern in date. It is likely that any archaeological deposits present across the central part of the site have been truncated by 20th century activity.
