Abstract: |
Two evaluation trenches were excavated in the grounds of St Cuthbert's House on the south side of the West Road north of Benwell, Newcastle upon Tyne. In trench 1 the remains of modern structures and earlier surfaces were uncovered, the latter probably, but not definitively, related to quarrying activites of the nineteenth century or earlier. In trench 2 the southern edge of a quarry was located which appeared on nineteenth century maps of the area but may have much earlier origins. In view of the probable post-medieval or modern origin of apparant surface features uncovered in Trench 1, it was recommended that consideration should be given to recording these remains by archaeological watching brief if any were to be excavated as part of the proposed development works.
