Abstract:
The report describes the results of a watching brief conducted at Dingle Bank Quarry, Chelford, Macclesfield, Cheshire during topsoil stripping for an eastern extension to the quarry. The study was aimed at locating any previously unlocated archaeological deposits in the area and was focussed upon the remains of the 'Lodge', a small farmstead depicted on mapping from the mid-19th century to the early 20th century. This survived as a suite of brick foundations and other features related to the house and associated boundaries. There was some evidence that the site may have been established in the mid to late 18th century. In addition to this work a systematic walkover was carried out on land recently stripped of topsoil within the quarry extension in order to locate any archaeological features or deposits not located by the desk-based assessment. No archaeological features were identified other than small quantities of pottery sherds in top soil were recovered from top soil and ranging in date from the 15th to 18th centuries. These are likely to have resulted from the dispersal of domestic debris from the surrounding farms.
