Pre-Construct Archaeology was commissioned by the Churches Conservation Trust to undertake an archaeological watching brief on the excavation of three trenches, to enable the installation of new drainage, power, and gas services. Faculty to carry out the ground works was granted by the Diocese of Durham 23rd February 2018, on condition that an archaeological watching brief was carried out in accordance with the specification.This work forms the final part of a phased programme of archaeological investigations at the site (watching brief). This phase of archaeological work comprised archaeological monitoring of two trenches to the east of the church (Trenches 1 and 2) and a trench located to the west of the church (Trench 3) (Figure 2). All three trenches were hand excavated by the clients appointed contractor under archaeological supervision. short length of a sandstone wall foundation [152] was exposed in the northern part of Trench 1.This wall was encountered during an earlier phase of archaeological watching brief work within a service trench located to the west and is thought to represent part a foundation wall associated with boiler house that formerly occupied this location.
