Wessex Archaeology was commissioned by CgMs Consulting to carry out a programme of evaluation trenching on land located at Langton Road, Norton-on-Derwent, North Yorkshire (centred on NGR 4796 4703) to inform proposed residential development. The site has been subject to an archaeological desk-based assessment (CgMs 2015) and a geophysical survey (GSB 2015), which demonstrated good potential for archaeological features being present on the site. A Method Statement (Wessex Archaeology 2015) for the evaluation was prepared and submitted to the Client and North Yorkshire County Council (NYCC) prior to groundworks commencing. The evaluation results appear to indicate there are two phases of archaeological activity represented on the site with the focus of Romano-British activity on the lower terrace (Trenches 7 and 8) and medieval activity on the upper terrace (Trenches 1-9). The artefacts recovered included Romano-British (2nd to 3rd century AD) and medieval ceramics (primarily 12th to 14th century), animal bone (cattle, sheep, horse, dog and pig), and small quantities of fired clay, ironworking slag and ceramic building material (CBM). Informative environmental evidence was present in features from both phases; of particular note is evidence for the potential use of turves as fuel in a Romano-British context. The results of the archaeological trial trenching correlated to some extent with the geophysical survey results (GSB 2015) although not all anomalies were seen in the ground and additional features were present in some trenches.
