Abstract:		 Following proposals by Rural Solutions for the expansion of the Elmbank Caravan Park, Cow Road, Spittal, Northumberland (NGR NU 0055 5101), the Northumberland County Council Conservation Team (NCCCT) issued a brief for a programme of archaeological investigation to be undertaken in advance of the development, in order to further inform the planning process. The planning application covers two fields with a total area of 4.2ha, although only the central 1.7ha will be developed under current proposals. Oxford Archaeology North (OA North) was subsequently commissioned by Rural Solutions to undertake an archaeological appraisal of the development area, which was conducted in January 2008. The appraisal comprised three phases: a review of the available aerial photographs of the site, a site visit, and a geophysical survey. The aerial photographic analysis examined all available images. Three putative cropmarks of potential archaeological origin were identified on several photographs, and a further two cropmarks appeared just once. Despite severe magnetic disturbance over a large part of the site, the geophysical survey, undertaken by GSB Prospection, successfully identified several anomalies of archaeological potential. It is recommended that a trial trench evaluation is undertaken of the area to be developed. Any future groundworks affecting those areas of the application site that fall outside of the present development proposals should also be preceded by an archaeological evaluation.
