Abstract:		 Greenlane Archaeology carried out an archaeological evaluation of land opposite Sun Inn Cottage, Lady Moyra Incline, Beckside, Kirkby-in-Furness. The site lies on the north side of the hamlet of Beckside, a short distance from the medieval parish church for Kirkby. Kirkby Ireleth, as the settlement was originally known, is recorded in the Domesday survey and the place-name indicates that there was a settlement there from at least the early medieval period. Early maps of the site show that it originally comprised part of a large field with a smaller block of land labelled 'garden' to the west. Lidar data shows that the larger field is covered in narrow ridge and furrow of probable post-medieval date. The evaluation comprised three trenches. In each case a similar sequence of shallow deposits comprising topsoil, subsoil, and natural was encountered, although no subsoil was recorded in Trench 1. Finds were recovered from the topsoil in all of the trenches, typically comprising pottery and glass of post-medieval date, the nature of some of which suggests that they probably derived from the nearby school. Two pieces of medieval pottery were also recovered from Trench 1, demonstrating activity here in the period, as suggested by the historical record. However, no features of archaeological interest were encountered and the site is considered to have low archaeological potential.
