Abstract:		 In May 2006, North Pennines Archaeology Ltd was commissioned by Ian Blackett of Cumbrian Homes Limited to undertake an archaeological desk study and site visit in advance of a proposed redevelopment of land adjacent to Smithy House, Temple Sowerby, Cumbria (NGR NY 6126 2694). The results of the desk-based assessment indicate a fairly typical spread of sites for the area. The Roman road (A66), which passes the site, immediately to the southwest, and onto which the site fronts has recently been examined in advance of a by-pass project by Oxford Archaeology North in April 2006. Work has also been carried out by North Pennines Heritage Trust in the area of Temple Sowerby in 2003, this consisted of a watching brief along a cable trench that ran from Temple Sowerby to Culgaith. The archaeology encountered by NPHT consisted of structural remains, possibly relating to buildings associated with Mill Rigg Farm, three worked flint flakes in the vicinity of Mill Rigg Farm and a single fragment of hand made ceramic, possibly Bronze Age in date. Any medieval archaeology is almost wholly represented by the village itself and associated field systems, to which the development area is positioned slightly to the southeast. Remnants of medieval field systems survive to the north-east of the village (Site 4), which possibly has its origins in the period preceding the Norman Conquest, however, the most significant remains will probably date to the post-medieval period, a time when the village underwent some expansion and rebuilding, possibly connected to improvements in agricultural practices, the mining of gypsum in the area and the arrival of the railway network to the village.
