Abstract: |
In September 2015 Trent and Peak Archaeology was commissioned by Richborough Estates on behalf of their clients to undertake an archaeological trial trench evaluation on land at Asker Lane, Matlock, Derbyshire. The site comprised disused agricultural land divided into four fields. Eleven trial trenches were excavated within the development area in locations to investigate possible archaeological features identified by geophysical survey (Walford 2014) and to test apparently blank areas. Other than two furrows and the base of a possible posthole no archaeological features, deposits or artefacts were encountered during the course of the evaluation. The results of the evaluation would suggest that the site has been in agricultural use since at least the medieval period and that there are no significant below ground remains present. |
