Abstract

This report presents the results of an archaeological evaluation, based on a topographic
survey combined with field survey and trial trenching, of two industrial sites in Parton,
to the north of Whitehaven in Cumbria. The first is a former coal mine and brickworks,
dating from the 1820s, at Bank Yard Road (NX 9785 2020) and the second is a former
brewery, dating from before 1815, at Foundry Road (NX 9808 2055). The remains are
contained within two distinct plots of land, the southern plot (Area B) containing the
remains of the coal mine, brickwork’s and associated housing and the northern plot
(Area D) containing the remains of the brewery.
