MOLA (Museum of London Archaeology) was commissioned by RPS Group PLC, on behalf of Morris Homes, to undertake archaeological work on land at Upton Park south of Weedon Road, Northampton. Two adjacent palaeochannels crossed the western extent of the site and are likely to have dated to the Pleistocene period. The earliest evidence of human activity consisted of a background scatter of Neolithic flint. The first feature was an isolated barrow that was established in the early Bronze Age. A later unurned cremation was cut into the backfill of the recut ditch and radiocarbon dated to the end of the early Bronze Age or the beginning of the middle Bronze Age. At least one isolated early Bronze Age pit was found in another part of the site. Parts of two late Bronze Age/early Iron Age sinuous pit alignments were recorded over nearly 0.5km within the site with c 257 pits revealed. An estimated 66% of these pits by volume were examined. This is the first time in the county since Wollaston Quarry in the 1990s that pit alignments were seen over such a distance within a single planning application. The archaeological excavation of these has resulted in them being by some distance the two most examined pit alignments in the county, if not the region. Both had most likely fallen out of use by the early Iron Age, but a middle Iron Age date should not be ruled out. In the northern and southern pit alignments there were 16 and seven areas respectively where there were different variables in the pits such as circular or rectangular plan form (and some pit areas had be recut by ditches), which may suggest they had been constructed and maintained by different gangs/communities over probably hundreds of years. Relatively little detailed work has been recorded on this enigmatic feature type. The extensive work and examination of the two pit alignments at Upton has allowed a typology of the variable areas of pits (and related ditches) to be postulated. A detailed discussion has compared these features in a local, regional and national context. Future recommendations for excavation of pit alignments have been recorded. A Roman trackway lay within the western part of the development area and it was part of the routeway network located around the nearby Duston Roman town. Medieval drainage ditches and field systems relating to part of the medieval settlement of Upton lay within the eastern part of the development area.

IntroductionThe incurable and progressive nature of dementia requires complex care, the majority of which is provided via informal caring by family members within the family home. Carers experience significant stress absorbing the challenging care needs of their family member and require education and training that can support and sustain family caring arrangements while considering the psychological distress that threatens caring breakdown. The aim of this scoping review was to map the evidence of trauma-informed principles within education and practical skills training in dementia family caring.Methods and analysisA two-step approach to the selection of literature will be used. In step 1, the review will consider research on active intervention education and practical skills training to support family home-based informal care for individuals with a formal diagnosis of dementia. The review will exclude passive education and self-accessed information/training provision. Only literature in the context of ‘informal’ day-to-day family caring provided by a family member or friend that takes place in the family home or residence will be included. Education and practical skills training provision within specialist care environments will be excluded. In step 2, during the full-text screen, only research where either explicit or implicit use of trauma-informed approaches has been used will be included.Preliminary searches of MEDLINE Ovid and Cumulative Index to Nursing and Allied Health Literature (CINAHL) were carried out between March and May 2023 to identify literature in this area. In line with the Johanna Briggs Institute scoping review guidance, we will conduct a search of published literature within MEDLINE Ovid, Embase Ovid, CINAHL EBSCO, Cochrane Data for Systematic Reviews and Cochrane Central Register for Controlled Trials in the Cochrane Library, PsycINFO Ovid and the British Library EThOS e-theses online. Publications in English with a date range of 1990 to current, with no restriction on geographical region will be considered. The search will be managed by Rayyan software and screened by multiple independent researchers. Results will be presented using narrative summaries and tables.We collaborated with an experienced Academic Support Librarian to develop the MEDLINE Ovid search strategy (Appendix 1), which will be adapted for searching other databases.Ethics and disseminationEthical approval was not required for this review, as it involved the synthesis of publicly available secondary data. The findings will be disseminated through publication in peer-reviewed journals, as well as presentations at national and international conferences. Additionally, stakeholder events will engage carers, individuals with lived experience, and healthcare professionals.

Archaeological work took place on South Quay, Hayle between 2010 and 2014. The development of Hayle started in the mid-18th century and it soon became a significant industrial centre. South Quay was constructed in 1818 by the locally influential and entrepreneurial Harvey family and was located adjacent to their large iron foundry. Activity on the quay evolved with, from the 1830s, the Harvey family becoming involved in ship building. This took place on newly constructed slipways connected to the quay. By the 1840s, wharfs, many other structures and buildings were established on the quay, all linked by rail tracks enabling products to be efficiently sent across the trading world. The decline in South Quay from c1860 was slow and little substantial new development occurred except for a short-lived industrial redevelopment of part of the site in the 1970s. The quay later became derelict and there was substantial fly tipping. Archaeological examination found that under the ground surface there were large areas where fragile historic remains and artefacts had survived such as 19th century rail tracks, chains and anchors. Other archaeological work undertaken included recording features such as the walls of the quay, which had been modified over time. Walls that had been part of the docks and slipways were exposed. Additionally, the former Carnsew Channel leading off South Quay was revealed and remains of its sluice gates, which was attached to the quay, were drawn. An 'Accommodation' bridge had been constructed within the quay during WWII to aid the assembly of 'Rhinos' in preparaton of D-Day in 1944, and was examined before it was removed. This publication has extensively used cartographic, photographic and documentary records to place the archaeological and structural features uncovered into context. The importance of these industrial remains has been shown by the fact that the former port of Hayle, including South Quay, had gained World Heritage status.

Women with breast cancer who are undergoing breast-conserving surgery were assigned to receive whole-breast irradiation with or without regional nodal irradiation. At 10 years, disease-free survival in the nodal-irradiation group was improved but overall survival was not. Many women with early-stage breast cancer undergo breast-conserving surgery followed by whole-breast irradiation, which reduces the rate of local recurrence. 1 – 3 Radiotherapy to the chest wall and regional lymph nodes, termed regional nodal irradiation, which is commonly used after mastectomy in women with node-positive breast cancer who are treated with adjuvant systemic therapy, reduces locoregional and distant recurrence and improves overall survival. 4 – 6 An unanswered question is whether the addition of regional nodal irradiation to whole-breast irradiation after breast-conserving surgery has the same effect. Whole-breast irradiation may involve irradiation of the lower axillary and internal mammary lymph nodes. 7 However, regional . . .

Parts of two former winches, which had been used in conjunction with the sluice gates recorded in Chapter 3, were found whilst excavating the Carnsew Channel. A similar complete example, reportedly still in use until 1980 has been preserved by the Harvey’s Foundry Trust (Figs 4.1 and 4.2). The winches found in Carnsew Channel consisted of the two outer parts with their bases. One had part of the mechnism also surviving and the larger teethed wheel were present with both (Figs 4.3 and 4.4). In addition, a square socketed wrench/crank was uncovered during the watching brief on South Quay. This

In a 250m radius the Cornwall and Isles of Scilly Historic Environment Record (HER) lists 73 sites and monuments, including fourteen listed buildings. All but one of the 16 sites located within the development area relate to South Quay (Mason 2010, fig 4; Table 2.1). ‘Blue Hayes’ (MCO34989) was a 1960s structure and the building recording undertaken before its recent demolition represented the only archaeological work (ECO1552) undertaken on South Quay prior to the 2010 evaluation. Activity in the area can be traced from the prehistoric to the Roman period. To the east a scatter of Mesolithic flint (10,000 -4000

This chapter combines all the evidence gathered during the archaeological surveys which comprised watching briefs, surface survey, building recording and evaluations (see Chapter 1) and uses the known history (see Chapter 2) to place the results into the historical context. The following elements are discussed in turn: The stone South Quay and Carnsew Dock walls, originally constructed in 1819 and altered and repaired over time; The slipways and Carnsew Dock; The Mitre Gates which provided sluicing of the Carnsew channel at its southern end. South Quay’s structural remains, fittings, fixtures and the associated internal railways; and The Accommodation Bridge The

There were two palaeochannels identified in Field 2, seen as darker bands (Fig 2.1) and their location located in Fig 1.8. They are possible feeders of a Pleistocene glacial lake, which formed in the Nene Valley. They were roughly orientated north to south and both were truncated by the Neolithic/ early Bronze Age barrow, the two late Bronze Age/ Iron Age pit alignments and the Roman trackway (Figs 1.8). The two palaeochannels were c60m wide and c100m apart. The palaeochannels were not directly investigated during the excavation. However, where other features interacted with the channels they were partially excavated. The

A single deposit of cremated human bone (4028) was recovered from a small pit [4029] cut into the upper fill of the barrow ditch. A sample of charred material directly associated with the deposit of cremated bone was submitted for radiocarbon dating. The material produced a date of 1540-1425 calBC (Beta 594460; 3230 +/-30 BP at 95%), placing it in the early to middle Bronze Age. A total of 23.5g of burnt human bone was recorded. A maximum fragment size of 22.1mm was recorded. The estimated mean fragment size was 10mm. No fracture pattern was observable in the remains. The
