Abstract:		 In November 2006, Birmingham Archaeology undertook an Archaeological Desk-based and Historic Buildings Assessment at Tutbury Mill, Rocester, Staffordshire. The work was commissioned by The Development Planning Partnership on behalf of The Department of Education and Skills, in advance of a proposed redevelopment as the JCB Academy. A desk-based assessment of all readily available published and unpublished documentary sources was carried out. Furthermore, an inspection of the standing buildings was carried out in order to compile analytical descriptions detailing their structural development, to produce a block phase plan, and to assist in assessing the significance of the buildings. The assessment revealed a site with a long history in the production and processing of textiles. The study area is located on the outskirts of a Roman fort and civil settlement, it is within the immediate environs of a medieval Augustinian abbey, and contains structures built by and associated with Richard Arkwright, one of the key personalities and catalysts of the industrial revolution. It was found that artefacts of archaeological interest had previously been discovered within the study area, and that it is the possible location of a medieval mill associated with the abbey. As regards the built heritage, seven distinct and separate phases of construction have been identified, beginning with the mill constructed by Arkwright in 1781 and ending in 20th-century additions. Recommendations are made for the detailed recording of these structures, and for archaeological intervention prior to any future works in the study area.
