Abstract:		 In May 2011 Archaeological Research Services Ltd were commissioned by Tarmac Northern Ltd to undertake an archaeological watching brief during the removal of topsoil, prior to mineral extraction at Hollings Hill Quarry, Northumberland. After the removal of soil bunds which occupied the area, the topsoil was removed down to the natural clay level. The depth of the topsoil ranged between 1.2m in the south-east of the site, to 0.40m in the north-west. There were no archaeological features or deposits observed, and the lack of features within the area of excavation may suggest that the area has seen disturbance in the past, prior to the nearby quarrying activity, and deposition of the soil bunds.
