Hayewater Contract III, Pooley Bridge to Dacre to Penruddock, Cumbria. Archaeological Desk-Based Assessment and Walkover Survey.

The general area in the vicinity of the proposed new United Utilities pipeline between Pooley Bridge and Penruddock, via Dacre, in Cumbria has numerous known sites of archaeological interest including an early medieval monastery, the sites of two possible stone circles, several Romano-British or late prehistoric settlement sites and a medieval Pele House (SM 23757). Because of this the Lake District National Park Authority (LDNPA) archaeologist recommended a programme of archaeological work including a desk-based assessment and walkover survey, prior to excavation of evaluation trenches.
