Abstract: |
Pre-Construct Archaeology was commissioned by Newcastle City Council to undertake an archaeological evaluation/watching brief prior to and during a scheme of highway works located around the junctions of St. Nicholas Street and Westgate Road, and St Nicholas Street, Queen's Lane and Castle Garth, Newcastle upon Tyne (National Grid Reference NZ 25003 63876). Seven phases of activity were uncovered during the works. These comprised: Phase 1: Roman; Phase 2: Post-Roman demolition; Phase 3: Anglo-Saxon; Phase 4 Medieval; Phase 5: Post-medieval; Phase 6: Early 20th century and Phase 7: Modern. Archaeology remains of significance were only recorded in Trenches 5, 10 and 11 however, superficial geological deposits were not encountered in any of the trenches therefore archaeological remains of significance may survive at lower levels. |
