Abstract:		 Archaeological observation of soil stripping at Alcester Grammar School revealed both Roman and medieval archaeological remains. Gravel surfaces thought to have indicated the line of the Roman Ryknild Street were noted at two points, extending the postulated alignment for a further 135m south of the road seen in the evaluation along an alternative alignment to that was previously published. A single sherd of Roman flue tile and a single late 3rd century Roman coin probably represented a background scatter of Roman material due to the proximity of the Roman town. A layer of soil, possibly the fill of a roadside ditch, was observed within the sewer pipe trench. This contained numerous sherds of 12th to 13th century pottery, probably deriving from pottery kilns thought to have existed in the vicinity. [Au(abr)]
