Abstract:
<summary>Evaluation of a number of known sites threatened by the motorway widening was funded by English Heritage. Deposits and structural features relating to medieval settlement (HWCM10176) were sealed below ridge and furrow at Junction 7 by Crookbarrow Hill, Whittington. Limited evidence for Bronze Age activity at Kerswell Green, Kempsey, came from the eastern edge of a field in which a crop mark complex (HWCM2120) was located. The Roman road from Worcester to Gloucester (HWCM1150) was sectioned where it is crossed by the motorway at Napleton, Kempsey. In addition, areas near to two known medieval moated sites were visited in order to establish whether there were any earthworks associated with them which had not been recorded on the County Sites and Monuments Record and which might be threatened by the motorway widening (field west of Norton Brickworks, Norton: HWCM10292; fields south-west of Dunstall Bridge, Earls Croome: HWCM10420); the moated sites themselves, which are not Scheduled, were not visited. {italon}Sec(adp)(21a){italoff} {italon}& AIP{italoff} {italon}SMR Primary Record Numbers:{italoff} HWCM1150, 2120, 10176, 10292, 10420
