Abstract:		 In November 2020 Vindomora Solutions Ltd were commissioned by Gentoo to undertake an archaeological evaluation on land surrounding the former Carley Hill Primary School, Sunderland, to inform archaeological consultation on potential development of the site. The field evaluation of ten trenches followed the recommendations of an archaeological desk-based assessment produced by Vindomora Solutions Ltd earlier in the year noting that while the majority of the overall development area had been disturbed either by quarrying, the construction of the former school and/or tree cover, there were still areas that contained archaeological potential, including the possible remains of a late Georgian waggonway running northwestsoutheast through the site. Archaeological remains were only found in one trench out of the ten excavated. Trench 7 was located west of the school and south of the main entrance track, and had been located to see if any remains of the Georgian waggonway were still in place. According to historic mapping, the waggonway (transporting limestone) was still in use in 1862, but had been demolished by 1897 and its line re-used as a field boundary. Trench 3 in the southeastern end of the development area was also targeted over the waggonway, but nothing was found in that trench. In Trench 7 however, the badly truncated remains of the trackbed were observed. No trace of the rail itself was present suggesting that the waggonway had been dismantled rather than just covered over at the time of decommissioning.
