Abstract: |
In May 2006 North Pennines Archaeology Ltd undertook an archaeological watching brief on land at Carraw Farm, Humshaugh, Northumberland, (NGR: NY 84954 71078), on behalf of Mr Jeremy Dodds of JSA Dodds and Son. The work was required in a brief provided by Mike Collins of English Heritage to monitor ground works involving the construction of a car park, and the insertion of a new tank for a treatment plant. The proposed car park area is situated directly to the south of the B6318 Military Road and lies partially over earthworks thought to be robber-trench remains of Hadrian''s Wall which lies immediately to the north of the site. The Roman Vallum defensive ditch lies some 20 metres to the south of the car park area. The whole area is classified within the Hadrian''s Wall World Heritage Site, is a Scheduled Ancient Monument (Ref # 26055), and is situated near a cluster of other archaeological sites of national significance, including Brocolitia (Carrawburgh) Roman Fort, a Roman Mithraic Temple, Roman Milecastle 32, and other earthworks of medieval and prehistoric date. |
