Abstract:		 The site is close to the Roman fort at Watercrook, which is on the opposite (east) side of the River Kent, and Helsington Laithes, the manor house for Helsington, a settlement that is recorded in the Domesday Book. Also close to the site is Helsington Mill, latterly a snuff mill, but prior to that a marble mill operated by Webster and Holmes of Kendal, and perhaps earlier still the site of a mill mentioned in the 13th century. A large number of stray finds from the general area, of both Roman and medieval date, indicate that there is likely to have been some activity on the site in these periods, although the accuracy of the location of many of these finds is uncertain. A Roman pottery or tile kiln was found on the west side of the River Kent, adjacent to what is now called Scroggs Lane, immediately to the north of the site. The site visit identified few constraints to further archaeological work and little in the way of disturbance to either of the pieces of land. In view of the potential for archaeological remains to be present within the site area, it is recommended that further investigation be carried out.
