Abstract:
AD Archaeology were commissioned to complete an archaeological desk-based assessment in advance of a proposed housing development on the site of Wynyard House, Wynyard Road, Hartlepool. Although records show that several settlements and finds of prehistoric and Romano-British date are present in the wider vicinity, the focus of the settlements themselves lie greater than 1km away from the site, and it is considered unlikely that significant evidence of activity from these periods is present on the proposed development site. The development site itself has undergone considerable ground disturbance due to the presence and then demolition of former structures and carparking. The site lies 350m north of the deserted medieval village of Oughton. The site itself probably remained agricultural land throughout this period, beyond any area of occupation. Although it is possible that the site may contain some evidence of medieval agricultural activity the considerable ground disturbance that has previously occurred means that it is unlikely that evidence of significant medieval activity will survive at the site. The assessment did identify a sub-rectangular mound of uncertain origin on the Ordnance Survey 1939 map, 413m east of the site in the centre of a large field which has since been built over by a school. Although there is no entry for the feature in the HER records it is possible that it may represent a WWII-era Defence of Britain feature of uncertain purpose.
