The investigations revealed that a demolition layer from buildings previously occupying the site had been compacted to act as the base of a concrete slab on the site. To the centre of the site, evidence of an 18th century tanning pit was identified, containing small fragments of oak bark. To the north of the site a series of Roman ditch fills were identified which extended beyond the scope of the trench. Several fragments of Samian ware and orange ware dating to the 1st and 3rd centuries AD were recovered from the Roman deposits on the site. It was thought that the Roman ditch was an extension of a ditch identified to the south of the site during previous work in the area. [Au(abr)]

The work comprised topographic, geophysical and XRF survey and the excavation of ten hand dug test pits followed by environmental analysis and AMS dating. The evaluation revealed that archaeological deposits survived across the whole of the Stormy Point site including a Bronze Age prospection pit, a second prehistoric possible prospection pit, at least one previously unknown prehistoric mine working with a collapsed ceiling, a possible prehistoric smelting bowl and another prehistoric pit probably associated with ore processing. Evidence was found of intermittent periodic ore processing and dumping with a date range from the Earlier Bronze Age to the Medieval period. Quarrying activity could be dated from the Medieval period to the Mid 17th century and traces of evidence for possible Romano-British or Medieval iron smithing were recovered along with evidence for Medieval activity close by, probably at Saddlebole.

The midden effectively lay in the back yard of the pottery and yard surfaces made up of crushed ceramic waste were also found adjacent. Remnants of the pottery buildings themselves were also uncovered. Saggers, ceramic boxes used for protecting the pots as they were fired, were found across the site and also built into the walls as a useful building material. No evidence for the kiln was found.

A desk-based assessment located 43 sites from the HER, 46 Listed Buildings and five Scheduled Ancient Monuments within a 500m radius of the site. These included a Roman fort, Vicus settlement, parade ground and road, possible Roman artefacts, a medieval earthwork site and dozens of late 18th and early 19th century buildings scattered across the town. An internet search also provided records of Archaeological Investigations Project 2007 Evaluations Version 4.1

42 sites within 500m. These were mostly records of boats that had been built in Maryport or were registered there. The evaluation showed evidence of the original national school buildings still preserved at least in foundation levels. In one of the five trenches, evidence of structures were found. In Trench Four, four brick and red sandstone walls and a cobbled surface were uncovered, these walls could be accurately placed to match the cartographic evidence to a structure on the 2nd OS map from 1899. The late 19th century school does survive in part albeit at foundation level, there was no evidence for any earlier structures or features. [Au(adp)]

A series of walls and surfaces were observed within the trench which showed that when the building was demolished the main footprint and foundations were left in situ. Also observed were a series of layers pertaining to garden soils indicating that apart from the post- medieval building, the plot had seen little in the way of later/modern disturbances. The potential for earlier features remained probable. [Au(adp)]

The archaeological evidence for the Roman period comprised a possible defensive or boundary ditch from which the Roman pottery dating from the mid- second century was recovered. It was also evident that that ditch remained open as a landscape feature until the medieval period, as the upper fills of the ditch yielded a number of pottery sherds dating from the 14th to the 16th century. The post-medieval period was largely characterised by a sequence of shallow linear ditches and pits which appear to pertain to agricultural activity which showed evolving land boundaries. [Au(adp)]

These covered a line of timber stakes some 1.8m from the north-east end of the trench, which probably represented a timber fence marking the boundary between the gravel foreshore and the riverine silts and gravels of the channel. No trace was identified of the corn mill which was shown on historic maps to have covered this part of Willow Holme.

A desk-based assessment located 35 sites from the HER, including two Listed Buildings and one Scheduled Ancient Monument within a 500m radius of the site. Tarmac and/or concrete surfaces of the recently pulled down buildings were observed in a site visit. The evaluation encountered evidence of the original sawmills. In two of the five trenches, evidence of structures was found. In Trench 1, a brick and red sandstone structure with a paved floor was uncovered. The structure matched an alignment and size of a structure depicted on the 1st OS map from 1865 and historic records. In Trench Four, a timber upright and post hole were uncovered within a possible floor surface. [Au(adp)]

The evaluation revealed that dumping had occurred with the aim of levelling the area over the past decades. A layer which could represent former railway trackbed perhaps sidings was revealed beneath modern dumps. During the 19th century Hadrian's Wall was reported to lay 2.4m below the contemporary ground surface. As a result of this investigation, it may be assumed to lie a further 1.5m beneath this, far below the level which would be impacted by construction operations for the flood embankment. The area investigated next to Parham Beck had been substantially disturbed by recent structures, and in addition rubbish deposits of 19th century date were encountered in the remainder of the area. No features of archaeological significance were encountered in any of the trenches. [Au(adp)]

The desk-based assessment and the evaluation identified and defined the southern extent of Bishop's Dyke conjoining it with the extant Scheduled Ancient Monument. However, the monument remained undated. The likelihood was that it was a medieval earthwork probably defining a formal boundary, possibly between farmland and woodland rather than a defensive rampart or part of a series of fortifications. The study area that it enclosed possessed no apparent archaeological merit apart from an approximately east-west aligned undated field ditch. [Au(adp)]

An archaeological excavation was carried out and revealed the remains of three stone drain courses two of which were well preserved another fragmentary, having been cut through by a successor. One of the drains ran north-north-west along the west wall to a point in the corner directly below a first floor garderobe, suggesting that it may have drained or flushed the garderobe, but no evidence of a direct link between the two was found. The drains appeared in the south-west corner of the tower much of which had been robbed out. Dating evidence recovered above the culverts suggested that they were covered by the post-medieval period and that the floor above continued in use at least into the later 19th century. A piece of stamped glass and several decorated pottery sherds may have been able to shed more light on the date and nature of use of the tower. [Au(adp)]

An archaeological evaluation and rapid desk-based assessment was carried out. A total of seven sites of historic and archaeological interest were identified within the study area. Aerial photography showed crop marks of prehistoric settlement to the south-east of the site. Furthermore medieval earthworks, remains of field systems and agricultural practices were located immediately to the south of the hall. The post-medieval period was largely represented by the construction of Stobars Hall and associated lodge in 1829. The results of the evaluation demonstrated the survival of a number of post-medieval and modern drains which appeared to pertain to agricultural practices. However, four of the evaluation trenches within the development area were unexcavated due to a number of factors. Several live services and drainage pipes were noted within Trenches 1 and 2. Trenches 7 and 8 were abandoned due to a leaking septic tank which made the ground unworkable for health and safety reasons. At the south end of Trench Four a live telephone cable was encountered and similar cables were observed in Trench Three. As a result of this an additional trench was excavated along the north boundary of the development site. The evaluation produced no finds or deposits worthy of environmental sampling. [Au(adp)]

The desk- based assessment demonstrated that prehistoric remains have been found within the environs of the development site, however, none have been identified within it. The evaluation revealed no peat with potential for palaeo-environmental sampling within the development area, and the natural marine clay was generally located immediately beneath the shallow humic topsoil. Three features were located within two of the four excavated trenches and although no dating evidence was found, comparison with historic maps suggested that two were drainage or boundary features relating to the enclosed landscape of the first half of the 19th century whilst the third may have dated to the 18th century. The development was unlikely to have a negative impact upon the significant stratified prehistoric remains. Some form of archaeological monitoring and surveying may be of value in establishing the location and extent of elements of the pre-1859 field system.

The excavations had revealed evidence for a large and multi-phased site first utilised during the Mesolithic period, with peaks of settlement activity during the Iron Age and Romano-British periods and another during the late eleventh to late fourteenth/early fifteenth centuries AD. During the Iron Age the site was occupied by a series of roundhouses and was enclosed with the cutting of two ditches. The first so called outer enclosure was a relatively shallow and narrow ditch which ongoing geophysical surveys and test trenches suggest enclosed an area of c.20 ha. The second inner ditch was both wider and deeper with an interior palisade slot and appeared to enclose an area c.80m east west by 60m north-south.
