Abstract:		 In July 2012 Archaeological Research Services Ltd. were commissioned by Galliford Try to undertake an archaeological evaluation on land adjacent to Mill House in Ponteland, Northumberland, prior to development. The proposed development involves demolition of Galliford Try's existing office building and the construction of seven new dwellings. A Desk-Based Assessment (DBA) carried out by North Pennines Archaeology (Wooler 2011) determined that an old mill forms the core of the existing office building on the site and that the mill race ran across the site underneath the current car park surface. The evaluation was carried out in order to provide sufficient information to properly assess the archaeological impact of this application in line with policy HE6 of PPS5 (now superceded by the NPPF). The evaluation was specifically designed to evaluate the survival of the mill race and whether an earlier mill race or buildings are located on this site. The mill race was successfully located and recorded during the evaluation. A finely textured black deposit was encountered that is believed to be the fill of the race. Preserved reed fragments were also discovered that confirm that the ditch was once a watercourse. The discovery confirms the location of the mill race as it is shown on the First Edition OS map of 1865.
