Abstract:		 At the request of CgMs Ltd, acting on behalf of Hallam Land Management, Oxford Archaeology North (OA North) were contracted to produce a suitable methodology and undertake the fieldwork for the initial phase of evaluation of an area of land at Foxlow Farm, Buxton. The area was subject to an outline planning application (HPK/2013/0603) and is intended for new housing. In order to meet the requirements of the National Planning Policy Framework (NPPF; DCLG 2012; para 128), a programme of archaeological evaluation was required, to establish the significance of any below-ground archaeological remains, with a specific concern with evaluating prehistoric activity and the survival of a Roman road thought to pass through the study area. The evaluation, comprised a shovel pit survey of 744 shovel pits, distributed evenly over the site, on a 10m grid. This is a useful technique for determining the relative distribution of struck-lithic finds over a large survey area. In addition, four mechanically-excavated trenches tested for the presence/absence of the Roman road between Carsington/Derby, or any other evidence for this along its putative line, where this passed through the site. The shovel pit survey did not find any significant concentrations of worked lithic material, indicative of prehistoric activity foci, and there was no evidence for the Roman road or any other archaeology in the evaluation trenches.
