Archaeological Evaluation (28 February 2003)
NS47SE 238 NS 4994 7242
An evaluation was undertaken in February 2003 of two previously excavated foundation trenches on the N side of Golden Hill Nursery, 13 Gavins Road, Hardgate. The site lies on the line of the Antonine Wall/vallum/road and the nursery building was located on an artificial terrace. The area is dominated by 20th-century service trenches and construction-related deposits. A cobble-filled field drain running N-S and a buried ground surface directly on the natural boulder clay horizon were the only two features of interest. No Roman artefacts or archaeological remains were found.
Report lodged with WoSAS SMR.
