Abstract:
In November 2010, North Pennines Archaeology Ltd was commissioned by Gateshead Council, to undertake an archaeological trial trench evaluation of land at North Side, Birtley, Gateshead (NGR NZ 2779 5633). This work will be used in support of a planning application for the proposed redevelopment of the site. A number of prehistoric artefacts have been found in the vicinity of the site, which lies to the east of a known Roman road and to the north-east of the medieval focus of Birtley. The site is also of potential industrial archaeological interest as a colliery waggonway crossed the site, which also contained a number of mine shafts. As a result of this, and in accordance with guidance given in Planning and Policy note 16 (Archaeology and Planning), Tyne and Wear Specialist Conservation Team advised Gateshead Council that an archaeological evaluation was required in order to ascertain the potential for archaeological deposits on site and assess the impact on those deposits by construction work associated with the proposed development. The archaeological trial trench evaluation was undertaken from the 11th to the 18th November 2010. A total of 15 trial trenches were excavated, revealing the probable remains of a waggonway in Trench 4 and several modern ditches in Trench 14.
