Abstract: |
North Pennines Archaeology Ltd was invited by Crawford Higgins Associates to undertake an archaeological watching brief on land to the rear of 19 Hill Street, Corbridge, Northumberland. The work was required in a brief prepared by Karen Derham, Assistant County Archaeologist, Northumberland County Council Conservation Team. The work involved the construction of an extension to the present property, a scheme that was believed to potentially impact upon surviving archaeological remains. The watching brief consisted of monitoring excavations within the footprint of the development, and the recording of features and deposits revealed. The area under examination lies close to the centre of Corbridge, which is known to have been a focus for settlement since at least the 8th century, developing into an important market town in the 12th and 13th centuries. The site is situated within an area of burgage plots set perpendicular to the street close to the church and market square. No features of archaeological significance were observed during the watching brief |
