Abstract:		 Two Archaeological evaluation trenches were excavated on the site of the former Fossway Fire Station in Newcastle. An area of dark-bluish grey clayey silt was located and corresponds with the upper portion of the ditch located on the northern side and running parallel with Hadrian's Wall. The edges of the ditch were truncated both to the south and north by modern contaminated ground and by a concrete beam. The natural levels were exposed in both trenches and demonstrated that the level of the natural ground had been heavily truncated by the construction of the fire station. No other archaeological features were revealed within the evaluation trenches, although several modern pipe trenches and concrete deposits were observed crossing the trench. No finds were recovered from the ditch or from the evaluation trenches.
