Abstract: |
Wessex Archaeology was commissioned by CgMs Consulting Ltd to undertake a scheme of archaeological evaluation at Deanfield, Wakefield (SE 3726 1991) as part of a planning application for surface coal mine.The evaluation comprised trial trenching following on from a geophysical survey undertaken by ASWYAS (2012). The work was carried out in line with a Brief (WYAAS 2012) prepared by WYAAS, advisors to the planning authority.A few archaeological features were found. Five former mining shafts were identified, with four clustered in the southeast corner of the site. Two 'V'-shaped ditches and a number of small undated gullies were recorded, with a minor cluster around Trenches 17 and 116. One of the 'V'- shaped ditches contained modern glass and pot in the upper fill. No archaeologically significant stratified finds were recovered. |
