Abstract:
In October 2006, North Pennines Archaeology Ltd were requested by John Niven Architects to undertake an archaeological evaluation at the Gateshead Visitor Centre, St. Mary's Church, Tyne and Wear (NGR NZ 2550 6360). The work was requested to take place prior to structural repairs being undertaken on the north-eastern extent of the retaining church wall, which was to be dismantled. The work required the excavation of a trench alongside the wall to allow the safe dismantling of the structure. The site lies within an area of high archaeological significance and as a result Newcastle City Council requested the work to be undertaken by archaeologists. Initially, a photographic survey of the wall and the grave monuments within the area of the evaluation was produced, followed by the excavation of a single evaluation trench to the depth specified by the construction engineer to allow for use of the remains of the original sandstone wall which was to be used as a base for the new wall. The evaluation produced a large quantity of disarticulated human remains, two charnel burials and a good quantity of clay pipe, glass and pottery, as well as a stone tomb and a number of grave cuts located. No articulated human remains were recovered. All disarticulated remains were reburied on completion of the works.
