Abstract:		 In December 2009 YAT undertook a series of trial trenches as part of an archaeological mitigation strategy at an 8 hectare development site at Shafton Two-Gates, 10km NE of Barnsley. A total of 25 trenches were opened up by machine which were located following the results of a geophysical survey. The survey backed up by previous work in the area had suggested that Iron Age/Romano British features as well as ridge and furrow and possible archaeological remains of an unknown nature survived within the project area. The results did not reveal any prehistoric remains but proved the existence of ridge and furrow where it cut into the natural. Sufficient ridge and furrow was shown to exist to confirm the existence of the remainder although it was not readily identifiable within the soil overburden. In addition a bell pit and two areas of burning of an unknown date were revealed. The work showed that the known prehistoric occupation to north of the site did not extend into the project area and that the bulk of anomalies identified in the geophysical survey could be accounted for by ridge and furrow and variations in the natural clay and bedrock.
