Abstract:
An appropriately specified programme of archaeological work was required in association with the renewal of overhead electricity lines. The site under observation lies 2.7km west-north-west of Heddon-on-the-Wall, to the south of the Military Road B6318, and to the west of an unnamed road. The scheme involved the monitoring of Pole 93 (NZ 11268 67460) for a replacement pole and stays. The replacement hole was augured with the pole being lifted into position using a tracked machine before the OHLs were transferred to the new pole. The two poles that originally held the lines were cut off just below ground level to reduce the need for further excavations within the site. The replacement stay wire was augured into the ground to reduce the need for excavation; the two original stays were cut off just below ground level. The work was of archaeological interest because the pole was located adjacent to Rudchester Roman Fort (Vindobala); the associated civil settlement and a section of Hadrian's Wall and vallum from the A69 to the March Burn in Wall Mile 13 (Scheduled Monument No: SM 26039, HA 1017533). No deposits of geological substrate or features of archaeological significance were encountered during the investigation.
