Abstract: This project comprised a geomagnetic survey followed by the excavation of a single trench targeting a specific earthwork. It is part of a programme of archaeological investigations conducted by Swaledale and Arkengarthdale Archaeology Group (SWAAG) with the support of Archaeological Services Durham University (ASDU). A series of earthworks have been recorded at the site which have been interpreted as a possible late prehistoric/Roman period settlement containing several house platforms and also the possible remains of a medieval farmstead. The geophysical survey has confirmed the presence of various earthworks and evidence of structures. Within the excavated trench natural subsoil was identified close to the current land surface. There were no indications of truncation or redeposition of the subsoil, as is sometimes associated with platforms terraced into slopes. A stone bank was present across part of the trench with cobbled surfaces to either side. Across the trench were large quantities of rubble within which were a selection of post-medieval finds
