Introduction

Land at Station Road, Honeybourne, Worcestershire (WSM49638)

This job contained an excavation and an earthwork survey. 1. Will refer to the excavation, 2. To the earthwork survey:

1. An archaeological excavation was undertaken by Cotswold Archaeology in August-September 2013 at Land at Station Road, Honeybourne, Worcestershire. The area of excavation measured 50m by 30m and was placed to further investigate the features found in the evaluation.

Four ditches were identified (A-D), expanding on the results of the evaluation and providing a chronology for three episodes of Roman activity at the site. Drainage ditches A and B were observed running southwards towards the Gate Inn Brook. Ditch A was cut by ditch C, a more substantial drainage feature on a north-west/south-east alignment. Ditch C was superseded by ditch D, a rectilinear drainage ditch that also cut ditch B and carried water southwards. Medieval ridge and furrow was recorded across the site and the remnants of a historic orchard were observed atop the medieval ridges.

2. An archaeological earthwork survey was undertaken by Cotswold Archaeology in August 2013 on Land at Station Road, Honeybourne.

The earthwork survey recorded a series of east/west aligned linear features which represent evidence of medieval ridge and furrow cultivation.
