Abstract The abstract describing the content of the publication or report Abstract:	An archaeological strip, plan and sample excavation was carried out at Boulton Moor, Chellaston Lane, Elvaston, Derbyshire (NGR: SK 396 331). The work was in two phases (Phases 1 and 2) and followed on from two separate phases of evaluations, which took place in 2014. Phase 1 of the strip, plan and sample took place in 2014 and consisted of the monitoring of the stripping of an area in advance of a new road. Phase 2 took place in 2016 and consisted of the stripping of a small area on the southern edge of the site. Much of the land had already been developed before Phase 1 of the strip, plan and sample could be completed and Phase 2 of the excavations took place when most of the newer area had also been mostly developed. The evaluations in 2014 had revealed archaeological remains of Iron Age date, including pits and gullies and most significantly part of a pit alignment running north-west to south-east across the site. Phase 1 of the strip, plan and sample work revealed further gullies, some with large amounts of Iron Age pottery within their fills. There were also a number of pits, similar to those revealed in the evaluation, but on a slightly different alignment. However, these may represent part of the same pit alignment and the fills contained similar early Iron Age pottery. Much of the archaeology was very shallow and had been truncated by later ploughing. Phase 2 took place close to where undated, but possibly related gullies and pits were discovered, along with a large unidentified feature, possibly a pond or large pit that contained Romano-British pottery. Unfortunately, due to the area being almost completely developed, only a small area could be examined. This was negative for archaeological features. The archive for the work will be deposited with Derby County Museums with accession number DBYMU: 2014.8.
