Abstract:		 This report outlines the results of an archaeological evaluation undertaken by ARCUS on behalf of Sheffield City Council in the upper loading bay of the Castle Markets, Sheffield. The work was undertaken so as to inform the proposed revelopment of the Castle Market.Two trenches were excavated during the evaluation. Both trenches produced significant remains of the former Sheffield Castle. Trench 1 produced the remains of a building with a doorway and buttress, and a cobble courtyard surface. Trench 2 produced the remains of two buildings which stood on the north side of the castle on the precipice overlooking the River Don. Artefacts recovered by the evaluation included pottery, ceramic floor tiles, clay pipes, metal objects, window glass and window leadsThe remains identified by the evaluation are of excellent quality and high archaeological value. The quality of remains identified by the limited evaluation at Sheffield Castle suggest that further archaeological work on site would be very fruitful. The archaeological remains represent an excellent opportunity to further our knowledge of Sheffield Castle and the medieval origins of the City of Sheffield.
