Abstract:		 A documentary search, building surveys and a trial trenching programme were carried out on a site behind Poulton Street, Kirkham. A substantial number of sources were consulted and it was discovered that the area had probably been inhabited since Bronze Age times. The standing buildings all appeared to date from the 19th and 20th centuries, but one merited further archaeological work on architectural grounds. The trial trenching revealed that remains of Roman/medieval activity survived on the site, sealed in places by a substantial depth of post-medieval material. The abraded nature of pottery in the Roman/medieval horizons indicated that some disturbance by ploughing was likely to have occurred. Further archaeological work was recommended. [Au(abr)]
