Abstract:
Scheduled Monument Consent was granted to conduct an evaluation at Walby Grange, Cumbria, across the plotted line of Hadrian's Wall and some associated monitoring works in response to a planning condition for a farm diversification scheme. Three 50m evaluation trenches were excavated at National Grid co-ordinates as stipulated by English Heritage. A large negative feature, oriented southwest to northeast, was present in all the evaluation trenches and was interpreted as the ditch on the north side of Hadrian's Wall. An area of sandstone slabs to the south of the ditch was present in one of the trenches and may be the remains of the wall itself. A shallow linear feature and two postholes found close to the ditch may also relate to Hadrian's Wall. A subsequent watching brief uncovered no features of archaeological interest; it did recover a largely undiagnostic piece of ceramic building material that could have been a fragment of Roman roof tile or alternatively a post-medieval window box.
