Abstract:		 An archaeological evaluation was conducted in February 2019, as part of a proposed development on land at Thornley Gate, Allendale, Northumberland. The development will refurbish an existing agricultural building, with an extension to the south gable to form a single private dwelling house with a new driveway and ground source heat pump system. It will include some excavation of an existing mound, the character of which was unknown. The mound was composed of clean deposits of sand and gravel, with mineral stain banding indicating a slow leaching of chemicals throughout the material. Such deposits are consistent with glacial features, and it is highly likely that such is its origin. The byre was partly terraced into the eastern face of this mound, with the western wall of the building set close up against a vertical construction cut through it. The original construction would have resulted in the western wall projecting above the sloping side of the mound and topped by sheets of corrugated metal roofing with an iron gutter. Over time there was a build-up of silting and soil-creep against this western face, which gradually over-topped the base of the metal roofing and gutter.
