Abstract:		 In 2020 Eden Heritage Ltd was commissioned by Kirkby Thore Parish Council, to undertake an archaeological watching brief at Kirkby Thore, Cumbria (NGR NY 63493 25679). The archaeological work was undertaken during the replacement and renewal of existing recreational play equipment within the Kirkby Thore Play Area. The work was required as the site was located within the scheduled area of Kirkby Thore Roman Fort and Associated Vicus (Scheduled Monument No 13450). The work was conducted in accordance with scheduled monument consent granted by Historic England (SMC Reference S00230372). The archaeological watching brief was undertaken over three days in August and November 2020. The watching brief monitored the excavation of 25 small-scale individual excavations in total, which were required to house the concrete bases for the new play equipment. No archaeological remains were noted in any of the excavated areas. The deposits encountered related to the previous agricultural use of the site and levelling activity associated with the creation of the play area.
