Abstract: |
In 2019 Archaeological Research Services (ARS Ltd) was commissioned by R and K Wood Planning LLP on behalf of Thompsons of Prudhoe (the client) to undertake an archaeological evaluation on Land at Anick Grange Haugh, Hexham, Northumberland. The aim of the evaluation was to determine the form, nature, character and date of any archaeologically sensitive features or deposits potentially present within the proposed development area. The evaluation comprised 159 trenches excavated in advance of sand and gravel traction as part of a suite of pre-application archaeological evaluation which has included geophysical survey (Durkin, 2019), an archaeological desk-based assessment (Brown 2019a), and a heritage statement (Brown 2019b). The evaluation project confirmed the absence of any features of archaeological significance with the exception of two recent/modern pits. However, the archaeological evaluation has confirmed the presence of relict paleochannels which has culminated in the preservation of rich alluvial deposits. |
