Abstract: |
Between the 20th June and the 3rd of July 2006, North Pennines Archaeology Ltd undertook a watching brief at St. Mary's Church Beaumont on behalf of Johnston and Wright Architects (NGR NY 3480 5930). This watching brief area was located within the Hadrian's Wall World Heritage Site on top of the presumed line of Hadrian's Wall; at this point, the wall is overlain by a medieval motte and the medieval and later Church of St.Mary's. Proposed underpinning works to the south east corner of the Church had the potential to impact on both Roman and Medieval archaeological remains and because of this, English Heritage, advised Johnston and Wright that a condition should be attached to the planning permission requiring that all of the groundworks be excavated under a full watching brief condition. The watching brief covered a small area L-shaped area (0.8m wide, 4m east-west, 4m north-south and 1m in depth) along the wall line of the south east corner of the church and revealed a number of archaeological features of interest though no evidence for Hadrian's Wall was encountered due to the existence of the medieval motte over the presumed wall line. |
