Abstract: |
In March 2011 Archaeological Research Services Ltd were commissioned by Galliford Try to undertake an archaeological evaluation on land within the car park of The Black Bull Inn, Benton, Newcastle. The purpose of the evaluation was to inform on the presence or absence of archaeological remains prior to the development of the site. The proposed development will comprise nine new homes and a new public house car park. The evaluation trenches excavated at the Black Bull, Longbenton, failed to locate any features of historic or archaeological detail relating to the 17th century buildings, which once occupied the site. Trenches 4 and 5 located the outer rim of the sandstone quarry, identifying the backfilled deposits used to level the site. Given the shallow depth of the natural sandstone bedrock, it is likely that the foundations for any buildings previously present on the site, have been at a similarly shallow depth, and so have been removed during demolition and subsequent levelling for the car park. |
