Abstract:		 In May 2018 Archaeological Research Services Ltd was commissioned by Breedon Cement Ltd to undertake archaeological evaluation trenching in an area of proposed expansion immediately to the south-east of the existing Hope Limestone Quarry, Castleton, Derbyshire. Fourteen untargeted trenches were excavated (thirteen measuring 50x2m and one measuring 30x2m) revealing varied depths of topsoil and subsoil overburden over the top of limestone bedrock in Areas 2 and 3 of the proposed development. A single feature was identified as a naturally occurring sinkhole/solution hollow in Trench 10 of the evaluation. Sample excavation of the feature revealed three naturally accumulated fills within a bowl-shaped depression that continued beyond the limit of excavation. No material culture was observed or recovered during the evaluation.
