Abstract:		 Wessex Archaeology were commissioned by Heyford Developments Ltd to produce a written scheme of investigation (WSI) for a proposed archaeological evaluation of a 5.2 ha parcel of land located off Hillside Road, Castle Gresley, Swadlincote, Derbyshire. The evaluation area is centred on NGR 42810 31760 (Fig. 1) and lies 100 m to the south of the scheduled monument of Castle Gresley motte and Bailey castle (SAM 1011209). Heyford Developments applied for outline planning permission for a development of up to 100 dwellings on the site (Ref: 9/2019/0124). Following a desk-based assessment and geophysical survey (Wardell Armstrong 2018a and b) that identified earthworks and possible enclosures, Sarah Whiteley, Derbyshire County Council (DCC) development control archaeologist, requested that trial trenching take place on the site to inform development proposals. The evaluation will comprise the excavation, investigation and recording of 16 trial trenches (each measuring 50 m by 2 m), equating to a 3% sample of the proposed development area. A contingency of a further 1% sample of the proposed area may be implemented dependent on the initial results and following discussions with DCC.
