Abstract

Following proposals by United Utilities for the construction of a pipeline from Eaton Borehole to Nanny’s Bridge, Cheshire (NGR SJ 568634–660564), the Cheshire County Council Historic Environment Officer recommended the completion of an archaeological desk-based assessment relating to the application area. Oxford Archaeology North (OA North) was subsequently commissioned by United Utilities to undertake this work.
In total, 39 sites of archaeological interest were identified within the study area during the desk-based assessment, of which 29 had been previously recorded in the Cheshire HER. The remaining 10 sites were identified by inspection of aerial photographs (Sites 29 to 36) and field names from tithe maps and apportionments (Sites 37 and 38). Sixteen listed buildings were identified within the study area and one Scheduled Ancient Monument. The scheduled monument comprised the moated site and fishponds at Rushton Hall (Site 12).
