## Summary

The North York Moors National Park Authority is seeking tenders for the "Monuments for the Future - Arable cultivation research project," focusing on archaeological services in the Yorkshire and the Humber region of the United Kingdom. This project aims to address arable cultivation on Scheduled Monuments to potentially remove them from Historic England's Heritage at Risk register. The tender was published on 16 January 2019 and is currently active, with an end date for submissions set for 28 January 2019. The total estimated value of the project is £10,000, and the procurement method is an open procedure below the threshold.

This tender presents significant opportunities for businesses in the archaeology and heritage sectors, particularly those that specialise in archaeological services, geophysical and topographical surveys, as well as excavation work at archaeological sites. Small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) with expertise in these areas are well-suited to compete for this contract, which could enable them to engage in meaningful heritage conservation work while contributing to the preservation of historical sites.

## Notice

The overarching aim of this project is to address the issue of arable cultivation on selected Scheduled Monuments with a view to recommending removal of those monuments from Historic England's Heritage at Risk register. For some monuments, there may be few deposits surviving and those that do may have only little significance. In these cases, there may be a rationale for considering them to be at a lower level of risk or as candidates suitable for full excavation of the remaining deposits. The outcomes of the project will therefore include a method for determining the level of monument survival and for assessing the results with a view to removing sites from the register.
