Archaeological Evaluation Jacobson, S & Bishop, M Barnard Castle : Northern Archaeological Associates, 2003, 50pp, figs, tabs, Work undertaken by: Northern Archaeological Associates The site had previously been geophysically surveyed and was located close to a Roman Vexillation fortress, (SM 1044), trenches were targeted to investigate anomalies, and other areas within the site. Fourteen trenches were excavated, with a total area sampled of c.960m2, approximately three percent of the total area of the site. The trenches in the northern part of the site, (1-4) produced no significant archaeological features and those that were recorded were of post-medieval origin. Trenches 7,9, 13 and 14 did contain features of uncertain date, while trenches 8, 10 and 11 corresponded closely with the results of the survey. The features found in trench 5 were not expected, bur probably correlate with what was found in trenches 8 and 10.
