The Iron Age and Roman site identified on the Argos site was a relatively rare discovery, as few sites of this size were known that incorporated such a level of Romanization in the Tees Lowlands to date.

There are two historic protected buildings in the vicinity of the site. There are no indications that the proposed development area was occupied during the prehistoric periods. The fort was established in the later second century AD as a timber and earthwork feature, probably expanded in the mid to late third century and then rebuilt as a stone structure in the later third century. There area was occupied during the medieval period and this included the establishment of a church in the ninth century. Any proposed development has the potential to impact upon the archaeological resource (mainly the Roman for itself).

The Southmoor wagonway dated from possibly as early as 1726 but was out of use by 1896. Evidence of ridge and furrow and a possible medieval field boundary area were also visible within the site. Further archaeological evidence pre-dating such features was located.

Durham : Pre-Construct Archaeology Ltd., 2005, 62pp, colour pls, figs, tabs, refs Work undertaken by: Pre-Construct Archaeology Ltd. Three park and ride sites are proposed on the perimeter of Durham city. There are no recorded archaeological remains within the site of Sniperley Farm but there is evidence of human activity in the medieval or post-medieval periods. The site at Carrville Interchange covers 2.8 ha and is generally arable land. It is bounded by the bank of a disused railway. The Carville interchange was considered low to moderate with moderate to high potential for post-medieval remains. The site at Howlands farm has a moderate to high potential for prehistoric and medieval remains. Other periods are considered to have a low to moderate risk.

A possible deserted medieval village was identified from earthworks at Cheat Chilton and also at Little Chilton. There was no settlement on the study site during the medieval and post-medieval period and it was therefore likely that the land was used for agricultural purposes.
