Types of Materials found in Hexham
Hexham sits in the Tyne Valley, where river deposits of sand and gravel overlie the sandstone and shale bedrock typical of this part of Northumberland. Ground closer to the river tends to be softer and more prone to holding water, while higher ground away from the valley floor is generally firmer, with sandstone closer to the surface in places. The surrounding countryside, much of it farmland, has variable ground depending on local drainage and historic land use, so a site specific check is worthwhile for rural properties.
