Abstract: |
In October 2007, North Pennines Archaeology Ltd was commissioned by Turner and Townsend to undertake an archaeological evaluation in advance of proposed development of land at Barras Bridge, Newcastle University, Newcastle upon Tyne (NGR NZ247650). The work required three evaluation trenches to be excavated 7m in length and 1.5m wide by machine down to natural subsoil and then hand-cleaned and recorded. The site lies within an area of high medieval and post-medieval potential, so the work was required by Newcastle City Council's Archaeology Officer, Jennifer Morrison. Two of the trenches produced no structural, environmental or archaeological remains. The remaining trench, Trench 2, discovered the remains of a cellar which had destroyed any potential archaeological remains. |
