Abstract:		 This report describes a programme of archaeological evaluation trenching conducted to further inform a proposal by Northumberland County Council for the construction of a Link Road between the A1 and the A192 to the north east of Morpeth in south-east Northumberland. The investigation of these features by archaeological trenching revealed little archaeological evidence of any significance, other than features indicative of widespread medieval and later farming practices. Most of the trenches revealed evidence of modern field drains, which represented the most widespread class of features discovered by excavation and along with plough furrows can be linked to the majority of linear anomalies identified on the geophysical plot. Plough furrows, field lynchets and a possible township boundary ditch were also recorded. Episodes of intensive agricultural activity during the medieval and post-medieval periods have probably been responsible for removing most traces of earlier activity in the area, while the ridge and furrow earthworks have themselves been levelled by modern ploughing.
