Abstract: |
An archaeological Watching Brief was undertaken by AD Archaeology on behalf of Newcastle City Council, at the junction of Woodside Avenue and Hexham Road, Throckley. The line of Hadrian's Wall, a UNESCO World Heritage Site and Scheduled Ancient Monument, is known to lie beneath the southern carriageway of Hexham Road. It was suggested that sandstone fragments recorded during an earlier evaluation immediately below the tarmac road surface may have been associated with Hadrian's Wall with another stone layer representing the Military Road. A similar layer of sandstone fragments was observed during the watching brief, which were probably associated with the modern road and of no archaeological significance. |
