Abstract:
In April 2006 North Pennines Archaeology Ltd undertook a watching brief on land that crosses Hadrian''s Wall, the Vallum and the Military Way in Northumberland (NY 6577 6612), on behalf of Sustrans North, as part of the ongoing works for the construction of the Hadrian''s Wall Cycle Way. The area is within the Hadrian''s Wall World Heritage Site and is adjacent to the remains of the medieval castle of Thirwall. Three areas in total were observed, which covered the presumed line of Hadrian''s Wall, the Vallum and the associated Military Way. The area revealed no clear evidence of Roman archaeology despite the proximity of the Wall to the works, this is probably due in part to the area being heavily disturbed by the building of Thirlwall Castle and the Newcastle to Carlisle Railway. It is likely that the majority of archaeological fetures in this immediate area have either been severely truncated or are located at a depth where they remain undisturbed.
