Abstract:		 Trent and Peak Archaeology ( and TPA) were contracted on behalf of Lafarge Tarmac to undertake an archaeological watching brief on land at Phase 29 of the proposed Finningley Quarry extension, South Yorkshire. The site is centred on NGR SK 69120 99151 at a height of c.2m OD. Prior to this evaluation a geophysical survey of the area was carried out which identified the presence of potentially significant buried archaeological features spread across adjacent fields within the Phase 26 extension (Johnson 2014). These potential features were then resolved by targeted investigation through trial trenching, which did not reveal the presence of significant archaeological finds features or deposits. Topsoil and subsoil removal was monitored along an approximate 3-hectare wedge of land located south-east of the current permitted quarry boundary between 25th May - 26th June 2018. Groundworks revealed the presence of two former field boundaries aligned north by south which probably relate to an earlier 20th century division of land for plantations. Ordnance Survey mapping show the field boundaries in place by c.1901, which appear to have been removed around 1958, during a period of spatial reorganisation which saw the clearance of the nearby Pickle Wood woodland. A series of pits and probable tree throws were also identified, and whilst undated, likely relate to a contemporary period of land clearance. With the exception of modern field boundaries, no archaeological features, finds or deposits of archaeological significance were identified during the course of the watching brief
