Abstract:
Pre-Construct Archaeology were commissioned by Orion Heritage Ltd on behalf of Mr Lightsource BP to undertake an archaeological evaluation on land at Hulam farm, Castle Eden, County Durham, centred at National Grid Reference NZ 43940 37179. This work was undertaken in association with a planning application DM/19/03959/FPA for the installation of solar panels, associated infrastructure and the creation of an electricity substation. The overall proposed development comprised c. 210 acres of three enclosed arable fields. Six phases of activity were encountered: Phase 1: superficial geology; Phase 2: Prehistoric and undated; Phase 3: Medieval and undated; Phase 4: Undated furrows; Phase 5: Colluvium and subsoil and Phase 6: Modern. Three ditches of probably prehistoric origin were recorded in Trench 4 including two ditches recorded in the central and north-western ditches that would account for the circular geophysical anomaly. A single sherd of prehistoric pottery was recovered from the north-easternmost ditch. A short length of ditch with a rounded terminus was also recorded that was not identified by the geophysical survey. In Trench 2 a substantial feature was recorded within the central portion of the trench from which three sherds of Medieval pottery were recovered. No features or deposits of archaeological significance were observed in the remaining trenches (Trenches 5 and 7-13).
