Abstract:		 Eden Heritage Ltd was commissioned by Rick Bestwick Holmewood LLP to undertake an archaeological desk-based assessment and walkover survey of land at Park Road, Holmewood, Chesterfield, Derbyshire (centred at National Grid Reference SK 4327 6618). The archaeological work was required to provide information to support a planning application for a proposed extension to an existing commercial cold store building. The proposed development would involve the clearance of an area of woodland to the south of the building, which was believed to have been part of the former Williamthorpe Wood. It was thought the development could therefore disturb any potential associated archaeological remains if present within the site boundary. The assessment has revealed that there is a low potential for archaeological remains within the site boundary predating the post-medieval period. In the post-medieval period Williamthorpe was a small rural settlement located to the southwest of the proposed development area with Williamthorpe Hall located to the west (later renamed as Woodside Farm). The proposed development area was part of the former Williamthorpe Wood, which was associated with Williamthorpe Hall, with possible origins in the 17th century. The proposed development area was depicted as woodland on Ordnance Survey maps up to the end of the 19th century. A post-medieval or modern boundary ditch was the only feature identified during the walkover survey. This corresponded with a boundary depicted on early 20th century Ordnance Survey maps. No other archaeological features were identified, and the research potential of the proposed development area was assessed as being low.
