<2> L-P Archaeology, 2020, Archaeological Evaluation Report: Booths Park, Knutsford, R4409 (Client Report). SCH8845.

An archaeological evaluation was undertaken in 2019 in the northeastern carpark of Booths Park in Knutsford, Cheshire, prior to the development of the site which lies immediately to the east of the Norbury Booths Hall moated site. The evaluation included the excavation of eight trenches to identify and characterise any potential below ground remains. Archaeological features of Post Medieval date, thought to be field boundaries, were identified, along with drainage channels and a small brick structure, likely associated with either Booths Hall farm or the late 19th century kitchen gardens of New Booths Hall. The development of some of these features can be traced through the historic maps from 1847 onwards.
