Abstract: |
During June 2008, North Pennines Archaeology Ltd undertook an archaeological field evaluation on land at The Village Hall, Burgh-By-Sands, Cumbria (NGR NY 3261 590.) The focus of the evaluation was to determine the presence or absence of archaeology and to produce a predictive model of any surviving archaeological remains. Within this focus was the consideration that the land also lies to the South of the line of Hadrian's Wall Vallum, a short distance from the south of the Wall itself, as well as being located close to the site of the Roman Fort at Burgh- By-Sands. Two evaluation trenches were excavated, to the south of the Village Hall (Trench 1 and 2). The results of the evaluation failed to locate the Vallum or any of its associated features (South and North Mounds, etc) within the evaluation trenches. However, the evaluation did reveal substantial and well-preserved deposits of archaeological significance dating from both the Roman period and the post-medieval period. |
