Abstract

An excavation in early 2021 investigated the remains of Romano-British settlement at Hawbank Field, on the north-eastern edge of Skipton. Activity had begun at least by the second century AD and extended into the late fourth or early fifth centuries, concentrated around a series of ditched and banked enclosures. Stone structures and surfaces and numerous ditches and pits were associated with the Romano-British settlement. Two inhumations were radiocarbon dated to the third-fourth century AD. Fragmentary remains, found alongside the Romano-British features, suggest some activity in the medieval period as the rest of the site was incorporated into an open field system.
