Abstract:
This document reports on archaeological monitoring conducted in May and June 2013 to mitigate the impact of groundworks associated with the excavation of trenches for new services at Bolton Chapel (centred on Grid Reference NU 10630 13674) near Glanton in Northumberland. Bolton Chapel, a Grade II Listed Building, is a chapel-of-ease situated in the Parish of Edlingham, Northumberland. The building, which dates to at least the 12th century, sits upon a raised mound and enclosure of probable prehistoric origin, and is of significant historical interest. The principal findings of the present series of excavations are that significant structural remains of the medieval period surviving in the area between the south wall of the nave and the west wall of the porch. The excavated remains in this area are interpreted as those of a 13th century tower, perhaps a later addition to the Norman church. Subsequently, the plinth of the small south-west tower appears to have been destroyed down to ground level before the west wall of the nave was rebuilt at some time in the later medieval period. The excavations at Bolton Chapel have increased the structural and historical complexity and enhanced the status of the site, already known as that of an 'early', probably pre-Christian religious site.
