Abstract: |
An archaeological desk-based assessment was undertaken of land at Upper Sunny Bank Farm, Drighlington. Two Roman roads are recorded running through the study area, to the north and east of the site, which may follow the route of the Spen Valley Heritage Trail in this area. The site is located in close proximity to the Civil War battlefield of Adwalton Moor. Warrens lane has probably been in use from at least the medieval period and its route is represented by a holloway in part of the site. Coal and sandstone extraction were undertaken within the north-eastern side of the proposed development site in the later post-medieval period. |
