Abstract:
An archaeological desk-based assessment was undertaken in advance of the redevelopment of Forth Banks Goods Station for the new Northumbria Police headquarters. There is a large amount of evidence for prehistoric, roman and medieval activity from the area surrounding the development site. Therefore, depending upon the depth of made ground at the development site, there is possibly the potential for medieval and earlier deposits surviving, as these may have been protected from industrial and later developments by the depth of overlying made ground. The construction of buildings on the site, in particular the Good Station, would have necessitated an amount of landscaping in the area, which likely heavily impacted upon any earlier deposits. However, it is also possible that the creation of made ground in these areas may have preserved pockets of previous activity. In addition, the remains of the pre-existing buildings which may have destroyed earlier deposits are in themselves of historic interest. The current proposed development intends to retain Kings House and the Former Goods Station Warehouse, with additional large scale development within the yard area to the rear (west) of Kings House. An access road is also proposed, between the development and the viaduct, which follows the curve of the viaduct.
