HADRIAN'S WALL: THE VALLUM NEAR MILECASTLE 10 (WALBOTTLE DENE), NORTHUMBERLAND: INTERIM REPORT ON ARCHAEOLOGICAL EVALUATION, SEPTEMBER 2000
Author(s): Helen Moore, Tony Wilmott
Milecastle 10 is one of thirteen of these installations on Hadrian's Wall under regular or intermittent ploughing. Field evaluation was carried out on these milecastles in 1999-2000.Milecastle 10 was sampled in 1999, and in 2000 it was decided to evaluate the archaeological potential of the Vallum mounds where it appeared that they had been ploughed away. The work showed that a very small portion of the north mound survived, sealing a buried ground surface which had the potential to provide evidence for the pre-Roman environment.
