Abstract: |
In assessing the archaeological potential of the site it was necessary to consider the history and archaeology of the area of Bell Street and North Shields as a whole. The presence of substantial buildings on the site since the Victorian period may have damaged or truncated archaeological remains. However, the lack of good archaeological information on the medieval quay-side meant that any opportunity for archaeological prospecting should be taken. The site lay within the North Shields Fish Quay Conservation Area. Bilton buildings were not considered architecturally or culturally distinct or important. Redevelopment of the site had the potential for rejuvenation and limited archaeological sampling to take place. [Au(adp)] |
