Excavation Report for 2015

Here is the report on the 18 test pits we excavated in 2015.

Download the report (You will need the free Adobe Reader to view).

This years activity involved a geo-physical survey of a site previously identified between Royston and Carlton, Barnsley, field walking for artefacts on the ground surface, further test pits in private gardens and within school grounds. The test pits were able to be dated from the recovery and specialist assessment of the pottery, clay pipes, glass, animal bones, metalwork and industrial residues (iron and glass slags). Similar finds to the 2013-14 seasons were revealed and largely date to the 20th century.

You can also download the geophysics report and the field walking report.
