Abstract:		 An archaeological desk-based assessment was carried out. It established that during the medieval period the area of the site lay beyond the limits of the medieval settlements of Benwell and Scotswood being used predominantly for agriculture or occupied by woods. There was also evidence for early mining activity within the site. During the post-medieval period, the immediate area became a focus for industrial activity with mining and shipbuilding developing and the Newcastle-Carlisle railway crossing the site. Scotswood railway station, Benwell old engine and the lines of a wagonway were identified on site. A post-medieval farm, Delaval Farm and two houses, Scotswood House and Scotswood Villa lay within the limits of the site. [Au(adp)]
