Abstract:		 After an archaeological monitoring of soil stripping in 2013 and 2014 (wardella2-152876), photographs taken by the quarry manager after quarry explosive action were analysed by archaeologists at Wardell Armstrong, to assess the quarry face for any visible archaeological features. No features were identified during this work, questioning the effectiveness of this methodology in identifying archaeological remains. In addition, in March 2017, one particular mine shaft, previously investigated through exploration (TL Excavations Ltd 2007) and surveyed in 2007 (Cope-Faulkner and Hall 2007), was subjected to an open area archaeological investigation prior to permanent partial burial/ demolition in the final phase of quarrying at the site. Although no structural remains were revealed, this did reveal a number of deposits relating to different phases of dumped deposits including perhaps the initial sinking of the shaft, and/or possible continued extraction activity within the shaft. Except for the latest, these were restricted to the south side of the shaft and represented six phases of debris dumps. These deposits were the surviving remains of a mining-era spoil collar, and as such, Shaft 6/ Feature 117 was the only shaft encountered in the study area retaining such evidence This open area excavation formed the final phase of archaeological work undertaken at Tearsall Quarry, in relation to quarrying at the site for fluorspar.
