A detailed magnetometer survey was carried out by Archaeological Surveys Ltd on land off Bransford Road, Rushwick near Worcester at the request of Cotswold Archaeology following a planning application made to Malvern Hills District Council (15/00504/OUT) for a residential development of up to 41 homes, with associated new access, car parking, on site biodiversity and an extension to the existing village hall site. The survey forms part of an archaeological assessment of the site. The results revealed two series of positive and negative responses with some linearity and similar orientations, and although a natural origin cannot be ruled out, the anomalies cannot be confidently interpreted. Several amorphous and sinuous positive and negative anomalies have also been located in the southern part of the site and these appear to relate to naturally formed features within a zone containing sands and gravels.
