One findspot, one monument and two events are recorded in the buffer zone. The findspot was of a Roman coin to the west of the site, whilst the monument and both events relate to investigations of an Iron Age to Roman settlement and field system in the area to the immediate north of the site. No Scheduled Monuments or listed buildings are recorded within the site or the buffer zone. The Magnesian Limestone in South and West Yorkshire Aerial Photographic Mapping Project recorded earthwork ridge and furrow within the site and the buffer zone; however, the site has been developed since the photographs were taken and no earthwork features survive within it. Three 20th-century spoil heaps are also shown in the buffer, to the northwest and south of the site. The Historic Environment Characterisation records the present character of the site as Agglomerated Fields, with significant loss of field boundaries in the 20th century reducing the visibility of pre-1825 piecemeal enclosure from a former open field. Character zones within the buffer include Agglomerated Fields; Deep Shaft Coal Mine; and Semi-detached Housing. The site is currently occupied by a depot and yard. Cartographic/historic land use assessment: The site was shown as fields on the 1825 Fishlake, Stainforth and Hatfield enclosure map. No changes were shown within the site on OS maps produced between 1853 and 1975. A house and a depot had been built in the site by 1984. Various features were marked within the buffer zone on the 1853 OS map including fields, land drains, Polton Toft Road, Hugh Hill Lane, areas named ‘Poltoncrofts’ and ‘Thwaites’ and Wormley Bridge Drain. Housing had been built in the western part of the buffer by 1932, with the Hatfield Colliery mineral railway and spoilheap shown on the 1948 map. Further housing and a mineral railway extension were shown in 1962. The mineral railway had been dismantled by 1984. The colliery spoilheap had been extended by that date and occupied much of the southern part of the buffer. Survival: The site has been drained and may have been cultivated since at least the early 19th century, which could have impacted on the preservation of below-ground remains through truncation and desiccation. The construction of the house and the depot buildings may have impacted on archaeological remains within their footprints. Archaeological remains may be present in the yard and lawn areas where there has likely been minimal disturbance. The potential for the survival of buried archaeological remains within undisturbed areas is considered to be moderate. Further investigations: Further archaeological investigation is likely to be required if the site is brought forward for development. Significance: Unknown. Remains associated with Iron Age to Roman field systems could be considered to be of Local to Regional archaeological significance depending on their extent, nature and condition. www.archeritage.co.uk Page 2 of 3 Doncaster Local Plan: Archaeological Scoping Assessment Aerial Photographs & Lidar Summary: Twenty-first-century aerial photographs show the site occupied by the depot and its yard, and the house and its gardens/lawns.

ID 00561/01 Roman Coin, Antoninus of Galerius found in garden of 15 Mayfield Road, Y Stainforth Stainford (A.D. 293-305). 05653 Romano-British Geophysical surveys identified evidence for enclosures, field Y settlement and boundaries and discrete features across a wide area on either field system, north- side of a large colliery spoil heap, which is likely to overlie east of Stainforth further remains. Trial trenching to the west of the spoil heap recorded settlement features, field boundaries, post-holes, gullies and pits, along with associated pottery indicating a 2nd- 3rd century date for the main phase of activity. A few sherds of Iron Age pottery suggest an earlier origin, though the nature of this earlier phase is yet to be established. ESY97 Casual One field walked by SYCAS staff and some first year university Y Fieldwalking, Fields students in 1985-6. north east of Stainforth, Doncaster ESY1474 Evaluations on land In 2008, a sedimentological investigation was undertaken, with Y north-east of 21 boreholes excavated in two transects to characterise the Stainforth, South depositional sequence across the site. No stratified Yorkshire archaeological deposits were identified, and the palaeoenvironmental potential of the samples was considered to be low. Geophysical survey in 2009 identified extensive remains of settlement and agricultural features, probably of Romano-British date. These comprised trackways, field boundaries, enclosures and possible hut circles. Evaluation trenching in 2014 recorded Romano-British features including possible boundary ditches, gullies, pits and post-holes and associated pottery.

One monument and two events are recorded within the buffer zone. The monument relates to one of the events, an augur survey undertaken to examine buried alluvial deposits within the floodplain sequence. The other event was an evaluation near Cossons Road, which did not identify any significant archaeological remains. One Grade II listed building is recorded within the buffer zone, a wharf on the River Don, near Quay Road. The Magnesian Limestone in South and West Yorkshire Aerial Photographic Mapping Project did not record any features within the site. Post-medieval ridge and furrow earthworks and cropmarks are recorded in fields within the east and north parts of the buffer zone. The Historic Environment Characterisation records the present character of the site as Drained Wetland, enclosed from common land as part of the 1825 Parliamentary Enclosure Award, with no legibility of the former common. The present boundaries are largely defined by the 19th-century drainage layout. Character zones within the buffer are defined as agglomerated fields retaining significant legibility of the pattern of early post-medieval piecemeal enclosure from valley floor meadows; post-medieval vernacular cottages at Thorne Waterside; 20th- century enclosure of former valley-floor meadows with no legibility of the previous layout and modern motorway and trunk road infrastructure and a distribution centre and sewage works. The site is currently five small fields utilised as rough grassland, bounded to the southeast by the M18 and to the west by Selby Road. Cartographic/historic land use assessment: The site was shown as fields on the 1854 OS map. With the exception of the removal of a small number of field boundaries, no further changes were shown within the site on OS maps produced after that date, though the southern boundary of the fields changed substantially in association with the construction of the M18 in 1975. Various features were marked within the buffer zone on the 1855 OS map including fields, Gyme Close Drain, Waterside

Archaeological Assessment CPM Cirencester : CPM , 2004, 22pp, figs, refs Work undertaken by: CPM A desk-based archaeological assessment was prepared in advance of a proposed prison extension. No archaeological remains were recorded within the site itself, but a number of burials of probable early medieval date had been recorded 'at the prison' during previous works. The assessment indicated that similar archaeological finds and subsurface features relating to an Anglo-Saxon cemetery may have survived within the study area. Information suggested that previous finds had been made on the south- western side of the prison. Further archaeological mitigation was recommended. The report also contained a previous watching brief (May 2004) report carried out during test pitting and borehole excavation.
