Abstract:
The survey area measured c.30ha in total and the methodology was developed in accordance with consultations undertaken with the Nick Best, Assistant County Archaeologist at Northumberland County Council. Surveying carried out in March 2013 used a Trimble M5 Total Station Theodolite with points taken at the top-of-slope and base-of-slope on all visible earthworks with points at c.0.5m apart. A total of 50 sites were recorded being interpreted as belonging to either agricultural use or one of three phases of mining (pre-18th Century, 18th to 19th Century or mid-20th Century). A Medieval deer park boundary was the most prominent earthwork feature within the survey area. Evidential value is seen within the potential for Iron Age and Romano-British remains of an industrial nature within the area, due to a neighbouring enclosure structure of potential similar date. Further value is seen within the deer park boundary in both its upstanding remains and the associative historic documentation as a potential resource. Historic value is seen in the survey area as a whole, representing a microcosm of the cyclical economic shifts from agriculture to industry. None of the recorded sites were deemed to be of very high or high significance. The known medieval deer park is of medium significance as it has the potential to contribute to regional research agendas, as does the medieval ridge and furrow and any early sites of mining. The deer park is also considered to be of local importance due to its local uniqueness and its part in the historic value of the area.
