Abstract:		 Following submission of a planning application for the demolition of a group of farm buildings and construction of new dwellings at Salthouse Farm, Salthouse Road, Millom, Cumbria, Greenlane Archaeology was commissioned to carry out a targeted evaluation of those areas that were thought most likely to be of archaeological interest. A previous desk-based assessment confirmed Salthouse Farm as the probable site of a salt works of medieval date and revealed the surrounding area is relatively rich in medieval and potentially earlier remains. Although no significant features were revealed and there was considerable disturbance of the deposits, a number of finds were recovered that suggest salt was being manufactured on the site, perhaps significantly, in the post-medieval period. It is considered likely that other deposits and possibly structural remains relating to the saltworks are likely to be situated in close proximity or perhaps beneath the standing buildings adjacent to the farmhouse. A small amount of residual medieval pottery, probably of 12th to 14th century date, was also recovered from the subsoils in the paddock area.
