Abstract: |
An archaeological watching brief was undertaken in order to provide information on the location and current condition of the water main between Brunton Bank and Codlaw Hill Reservoir. As much of the line of this pipe lay within an area designated as a SAM, the watching brief was carried out under a Class Consent Order so that the impact of renewal works on archaeological deposits could be assessed and suitable mitigation strategies formulated prior to the granting of Scheduled Monument Consent. During the course of the watching brief elements of the Hadrian's Wall system were identified. These consisted of a portion of infilled wall ditch, the north mound of the Vallum and a section of collapsed wall identified in investigation trenches 6, 7 and 12 respectively. Buried soils and other deposits of archaeological interest were also identified in a number of other investigation trenches. [Au(abr)] |
