Aerial Photographic Transcription (14 August 1992)
An aerial transcription was produced from oblique aerial photographs. Information from Historic Environment Scotland (BM) 31 March 2017.
Excavation (1994)
(Location cited as NT 575 342). Excavation within the Roman complex at Newstead (NT53SE 20.00) was carried out in advance of the removal of a field boundary. The southern side of the field boundary lay within a scheduled monument area, the northern side is unscheduled but thought to be on the line of a Roman road. A linear cropmark crossed the area. Following resistivity survey, four trenches revealed a metalled road, a substantial pit and a small, isolated pit. The large pit, measuring 2m in diameter and extending beyond a depth of 2.4m, is likely to be a well. This feature and the road are interpreted as Roman.
An assemblage of worked flint and chert, of probable mesolithic date was collected from the subsoil. Included were waste flakes and scrapers, mostly made of local chert.
G Wilson and H Moore 1994.
Resistivity (September 2002)
NT 576 341 Geophysical survey was undertaken in September 2002 on the site of a Roman temporary camp at Broomhill Farm (NT53SE 93), to investigate a possible site identified by dowsing. A resistivity survey over four 20 x 20m grids located the ditch and titulus of the Roman temporary camp on a NNE-SSW alignment, and a further ditch on an ENE-WSW alignment. Close to the NE corner of the cottages two curvilinear high resistance anomalies were identified which may be geological in origin or may define a circular enclosure.
