Abstract:		 Monitoring of topsoil stripping on an extension to the quarry at Kirton Brickworks, Nottinghamshire, was undertaken in July and August 2017, the latest of a series of archaeological works undertaken since 2004. No cut features were noted, apart from land drains and recent plough scores. The watching brief covered part of a former lane, of some antiquity: it was confirmed that this had been disturbed by modern service trenches and a build-up of backfilled agricultural materials; nothing of its earlier existence was noted. The current work also confirmed an earlier observation that ridge and furrow agriculture this did not extend to the north of the lane. Twenty-one unstratified finds were recovered from the topsoil or the stripped surface. An Early Bronze Age flint dagger blade tip was a particularly noteworthy and significant find. Recommendations are made for its illustration and publication in an appropriate journal. Otherwise, finds were limited to post-medieval or early modern pottery.
