Abstract:		 The proposed development area contained a range of college buildings, car parks, a multi-use games area and a playing field. It is situated near the north-eastern edge of the modern town of Stamford, north-east of its historic core. It lies to the north of the River Welland on terraced ground that rises gradually towards the west and the north. The solid geology around Stamford comprises Inferior Oolite with pockets of Greater Oolite. No known archaeological remains lie within the development area , which comprised open fields until the early part of the 20th century. However, the remains of three medieval friaries are located to the south of the site, while medieval and post-medieval kilns and scatters of medieval and Roman artefacts have been identified within the vicinity. Consequently, the development area had the potential to contain archaeological remains. As a result, the South Kesteven Planning Archaeologist issued a brief outlining the requirements of a trial trench evaluation within the area of the playing field, to determine whether any further archaeological work was required. No archaeological features were identified within the trial trenches. Terracing of the playing field has had a severe negative impact on its potential to contain archaeological remains. The parts of the development area not sampled by trial trenching have also been subject to terracing and also to building construction. Therefore, it is reasonable to extrapolate that the development area as a whole retains negligible archaeological potential.
