Abstract:
In June 2020, Archaeological Research Services Ltd was commissioned by Northumberland Estates to conduct an earthwork's survey and evaluation on land east of St. James's Church in South Charlton, Northumberland. The works were undertaken to support a planning application for a proposed residential development comprising seven dwellings, a new access road, car parking, drainage and also landscaping. Upon completion of the works, minimal evidence of archaeological activity was encountered. The existence of ridge and furrow was indicated from the results of a geophysical survey carried out across the area of the proposed development, but was found to be much less pronounced upon visual inspection. This situation was reflected upon completion of the excavation in all of the evaluation trenches. However, it was noticed that these features appeared much more pronounced in the field immediately to the east of the evaluation field, therefore the earthwork's survey in this adjacent area was expanded beyond the limits of the proposed development area to demonstrate a comparison in the survival of these particular features bisected by the later hedgerow boundary. Finally, no earlier features were identified as being cut into the natural substrate in any of the four evaluation trenches and the only finds recovered came from the topsoil layer and comprised a small assemblage of modern glass and pottery fragments.
