Abstract The abstract describing the content of the publication or report Abstract:	This report sets out the results of an Archaeological Watching Brief that was carried out on land at Scarborough Waste Water Treatment Works (WwTW), Coastal Road, Burniston, Scarborough, North Yorkshire, (TA 02032 92175) as well as Toll House Pumping Station, Marine Drive, Scarborough, North Yorkshire, (TA 05147 88852). The archaeological work was commissioned by Morgan Sindall Grontmij, on behalf of Yorkshire Water. The archaeological work took place throughout June, July and August 2012 at the Scarborough WwTW and involved monitoring the groundwork’s associated with the erection of additional waste water treatment facilities including 2 no. open storm water settlement tanks, with associated distribution and collection chambers, an ultraviolet (UV) treatment plant for treatment of storm water prior to discharge, a sludge treatment facility including a sludge balancing tank and a blind tank for storage of sewage sludge, odour control plant, and a kiosk to contain motor control equipment. The archaeological work undertaken at Toll House Pumping Station involved monitoring the groundwork’s associated with the construction of a pumping station building and a 4000m underground retention tank for the storage of storm water, 9 parking spaces, retaining wall and vehicle and pedestrian access. The Watching Brief was undertaken to fulfil an archaeological condition attached to the Planning Application Consents (Refs: 11/02581/CC; 11/02601/CC). The archaeological work at the Scarborough WwTW involved the supervision of a large excavation area to house two large storm tanks, a new blind tank and a high sludge balancing tank as well as a mile long stretch of trenching to house two parallel water pipes feeding into the treatment works. The pipeline trenches followed the route of the sea cliff edge and varied in depth due to the varying degree of the sloping land. All below groundwork was excavated by a mechanical excavator, operating under close archaeological supervision. The archaeological work at Toll House involved the supervision of a large below ground retention tank to house storm water. The tank was excavated by a mechanical excavator in shallow spits down to a depth of approximately 3m, operating under close archaeological supervision. A cobble used as a possible rubbing stone and a single flint scraper were recovered from the Scarborough WwTW. No archaeological finds, features or deposits were identified at the Toll House Pumping Station.
