Abstract:		 Allen Archaeology Limited were commissioned to undertake an archaeological evaluation by trial trench on land at Roycroft Farm, Bramshall Road, Uttoxeter to support a planning application for the development of a new housing estate. A planning application for residential development was submitted for this site supported by a desk-based assessment. The initial application was refused permission; however permission was granted following an appeal with conditions. Allen Archaeology contacted Staffordshire Historic Environment Team and it was agreed that the appropriate response would be for a staged evaluation including geophysical survey, fieldwalking (where possible) and targeted evaluation trenching. The site lies in an area of archaeological potention, with prehistoric findspots nearby, no Roman activity is recorded in the vicinity of the development site and Uttoxeter is thought to have Early Medieval origins, however this is not supported as of yet by the archaeological resource. Medieval evidence within the site is dominated by remnants of ridge and furrow, which are present within and around the development, while there is evidence for a 13th century smelting site in Uttoxeter itself. This evaluation revealed several seemingly isolated features including ditches, which did not contain any finds, and several modern post holes. The upper fills of the ditches were sealed by the ridge and furrow and must therefore be earlier in date.
