| Abstract: |
<summary>The route of Severn Trent Water's Broadheath Drought Main was watched during construction work in November and December 1991. The salvage recording comprised the watching of topsoil-stripping along the working corridor, fieldwalking of areas recently stripped, and the collection of artefacts from the surface. Along most of the route of the main a thin scatter of cultural material was found. Prehistoric material totalled one [?three - see note below] flint flake. Roman material comprised a thin scatter of pottery and tile from most of the fields. The Medieval and Post-Medieval periods were also represented by very small quantities of material. The scatters of Roman, medieval and post-medieval pottery and tile can be interpreted as the result of manuring arable fields with midden material containing household refuse. The route of the main passes close to known medieval settlements. The short length of main in Worcester produced no archaeological material of any period. {italon}Au {italoff}(amended) {italon}SMR Primary Record Numbers:{italoff} HWCM various |
