The site is located close to the centre of Worksop, within the historic core of the town. It is bordered to the north by Newcastle Street, to the east by Watson Road, and to the west by Queen Street. Further car parking along with several residential dwellings and commercial properties are located to the south. All topsoil/subsoil stripping was carried out using an appropriate toothless bucket (containing no holes for escaping spoil), used on a 360 degree racked machine. Spoil was deposited behind the 360 degree machine to avoid running on freshly stripped areas. Due to the shallow depth of development impact across the northern half of the site, alluvial deposits and a post-medieval drain recorded during the evaluation were not observed during this phase of the works. For similar reasons, two undated (but possibly medieval) features identified towards the western extent of the site during the evaluation were also not observed. No further archaeological features confidently pre-dating the 20th century were identified during the strip, map and sample exercise, leading to the conclusion that if there was any activity in this area prior to the 19th century, it was either limited in nature or thatarchaeological deposits are now deeply buried. One or two features observed at the western extent of the site, whilst remaining undated, might feasibly represent earlier, potentially medieval, features, but this could not be confirmed.
