Monitoring of topsoil stripping on the New Best Red Quarry and Cream Quarry at Kirton Quarry, Nottinghamshire, was undertaken in August and September 2012. This watching brief forms the latest part of a series of archaeological works undertaken since 2004. These investigations have found limited preserved archaeological remains associated with the land at Kirton Quarry. Several features were found during the course of the watching brief, including a horse burial and fragments of a relict field boundary. Sixteen sherds of post-medieval, and one sherd of late Iron Age or early Roman, pottery were also found.
