Abstract:		 ArcHeritage were commissioned by Gleeson Ltd to undertake an archaeological evaluation at land off New Lane, Blidworth, North Nottinghamshire at the request of Nottinghamshire County Council in order to satisfy an archaeological condition of the planning permission (20/0475/FULM) stipulated by the Archaeology Advisor for Nottinghamshire County Council. The evaluation trenches revealed very few traces of archaeology. Only one trench, 8, produced any possible archaeological features remains of a possible fence line; without any direct dating evidence it is impossible to ascribe a reliable date to the features, which could originate from medieval agricultural land use, typically signified by narrow strips of land, or a much more modern practice of the construction of temporary fencing for animal paddocks as seen in the adjacent fields. The presence of clearly modern postholes in Trench 10 would suggest, by direct comparison, that the features excavated in Trench 8 could be older than the modern period. The only finds recovered were occasional sherds of medieval or post-medieval date from the topsoil. The presence of rills in Trench 11 suggests that a significant amount of hillslope erosion has taken place on this site during open cultivation. This has undoubtedly contributed to the erosion of soils on the slope and concomitant deposition of eroded soil downslope. No significant archaeology was identified in the evaluation trenches and the archaeological potential of the site is therefore low.
