In 2006 and 2007, a 94km-long gas pipeline was excavated across the
Pennines, from Pannal in North Yorkshire, to Nether Kellet in
Lancashire (N/W England). Around twenty archaeological excavations
were undertaken to mitigate the impact of the construction of the
pipeline on the archaeology of the route, and these form the
subject of this volume. The excavated remains were generally slight
and were widely scattered along the route; the range of periods
they represent is equally broad and intermittent. The earliest
finds represented are Mesolithic flint scatters, with some evidence
of Bronze Age activity, but very little evidence of settlement or
land division, a pattern which broadly continues throughout the
area's history.
