Abstract:		 The Old Corner House, Weobley, Herefordshire, is a Grade II* listed building which has been dated to the 15th century. It stands on the corner of Broad Street, a medieval street which runs north south through the centre of Weobley. During January 2004 Archenfield Archaeology conducted an evaluation in the orchard of the Old Corner House in advance of a proposed housing development. Four trenches measuring 10m x 2m were opened by machine to reveal in-situ archaeological deposits. Archaeological deposits were recorded from the medieval to Victorian periods stretching from the Broad Street frontage through to the rear boundary of the property. Demolition rubble was found close to Broad Street, which may be associated with buildings on the 1838 tithe map. Further back from the street frontage post medieval pits and post holes cut through a layer with little archaeological activity. This layer sealed stone rubble containing green glazed roof tile probably dating to the 14th to 15th century. The stone rubble covered earlier in-situ burning. East west linear features were found towards the rear of the property with a medieval ditch and its possible terminus occurring just inside the western boundary hedge of the orchard. This possible ditch could represent a boundary to one of the burgages mentioned in the brief and shown on the tithe map. Dating evidence from the fill of the ditch show that it was open for some 200/300 years.
