Abstract:		 An archaeological evaluation was carried out in July and August 2001 by Birmingham University Field Archaeology Unit (BUFAU) on behalf of W. Westerman Limited in advance of an application for planning permission for a residential development. The development would involve the conversion of two existing brick barns at Church Farm, Tamworth Road, Sawley, in Derbyshire (NGR SK 4719 3140), and the construction of four new houses. Three trial- trenches were located within the site following a desk-based assessment, which identified areas of archaeological interest. Documentary references suggested the possibility that Anglo-Saxon and medieval remains might be encountered. The site was considered to have high archaeological potential due to its location at the heart of the medieval village of Sawley and close to All Saints' Church. A ditch of possible Iron Age date was found in Trench 2, located to the northwest of the church. No features of Roman date were identified. However residual Roman pottery was recovered, indicating Roman activity close by, or perhaps even within the site. In Trench 3 pits and ditches probably dating to the 13th century A D were revealed. Other features recorded were of post-medieval date probably relating to the use of the site as a farm during the late post-medieval period. A number of undated features were recorded in Trench 1, located northwest of the church, including a ditch, gully and a posthole these were sealed by an early 18th century layer and the features may be of post-medieval date or perhaps earlier, possibly medieval. The existing mid to late 19th century brick barns were briefly appraised and a descriptive report was prepared.
