Abstract: |
In 2018 Archaeological Research Services Ltd (ARS Ltd) undertook an archaeological evaluation on land east of Longhoughton Quarry, Northumberland. The archaeological evaluation, which was undertaken as part of a phased plan of archaeological works, followed an earlier geophysical survey and comprised the excavation of 16 trial trenches. All archaeological works were undertaken in advance of planning application (18/01285/CCMEIA) for the lateral extension of the current quarry extraction area. Evaluation trenches targeted a possible rectilinear enclosure and associated features in the north-west of the proposed development area identified from geophysical survey. Additional trenches targeted possible archaeological features toward the south-western extent of the site. |
