The SMR records five undesignated monuments within the study area including: the site of the now destroyed Knouch Bridge Mill (Cornmill), the remains of which may be under a yard and later building; six flint waste flakes of unknown date; Canklow Wood Iron Age and Romano-British Settlement, approximately 100m to the east of the site, consisting of a complex of Iron Age or Romano-British enclosures, lynchets, drove road and earthworks (including cultivation terraces, field boundaries and enclosures), a number of undated cairns possibly representing stone clearance from agricultural land, post medieval remains consisting of bell pits, a spoil heap and quarry, several surface finds of 1st and 2nd century A.D. pottery and native ware; A small Bronze Age Flat Axe; Roman pottery of 2nd or 3rd century date, walling and road material; and A 13th century pottery kiln was found in 1957 and re-excavated in 1962 within the 500m buffer. The site was not included in the Magnesian Limestone in South and West Yorkshire AP Mapping Project, so no information is available on the extent of any cropmark features in or adjoining the site. The HEC records the present character of the site as Unenclosed Land: Regenerated Scrubland 1955-2003 with a fragmentary historic character of Extractive: Deep Shaft Coal Mine 1891-1954 and Enclosed Land: Valley Floor Meadows 1066-1890. The site is assigned to the Post-Industrial character zone. Comparison of historic OS maps indicate the site changed considerably in the last decade of the 19th century with the establishment of the Rotherham Main Collieries by the 1890s, the associated buildings of which continued to occupy the site until the colliery was closed in 1954 and then cleared in the 1970s. Prior to the establishment of the collieries the site was within enclosed land. The Modern OS map shows the site to be almost entirely cleared with some remnants of the colliery, particularly the presence of several disused shafts. Post 1990 Aps show the area to be scrubland. Known and Potential Heritage Assets There is a high possibility of disturbing 19th and 20th century remains of negligible significance. Survival The likely survival of pre-19th century heritage assets at this site is considered to be poor due to the extensive disturbance caused by the establishment of the Rotherham Main Collieries. However, the survival of remains related to the colliery is considered to be moderate.

The site was not included in the Magnesian Limestone in South and West Yorkshire AP Mapping Project, so no information is available on the extent of any cropmark features in or adjoining the site. The HEC records the present character of the site as Modern Industrial 1906 - 2003 with a fragmentary historic character of Industrial 1854 - 1905 and Enclosed Land: Valley Floor Meadows 1066 - 1853. The site is assigned to the Complex Historic Town Cores character zone. Comparison of historic OS indicate the northwest section of the site was occupied by buildings associated with the Rotherham Old Brewery, establishe din the 1820s, from the 1st edition release until the determination of a brewery disappears from the maps by 1968. By 1980 the brewery
