Abstract:		 In August 2013, Archaeological Research Services ltd were commissioned by URS on behalf of BP to undertake an archaeological evaluation at a petrol filling station in Denton Burn, Newcastle. The purpose of the evaluation was to assess damage that may have been caused to any archaeological remains within the Scheduled ancient Monument of Hadrian's Wall by the drilling of boreholes for monitoring wells. The route of Hadrian's Wall runs directly through the general area of the site from northwest to southeast. A single trench was opened on the site measuring 1.7m by 3m, which was excavated down through modern ground make-up deposits, which were situated above a buried topsoil and subsoil horizon, the latter of which contained a juvenile cow skeleton, shards of clear glass and early 20th century pottery fragments. below this subsoil deposits, the natural clay substratum was encountered. No evidence of in-situ material from Hadrian's Wall was encountered within the trench during the evaluation. Large pieces of dressed stone observed within the trench may date to the Roman period and relate to the wall itself, but these were clearly no longer in-situ, having been deposited as part of the modern ground make-up event to create the surface of the petrol station forecourt. It appears that the wall does not survive at this location.
