Abstract:		 An archaeological excavation and watching brief at Snow Hill Queensway, Birmingham (centred on NGR. SP 069873) was commissioned by Ballymore Properties Ltd. The work was undertaken by Birmingham Archaeology in August 2006. The watching brief monitored the excavation of a service location trench through the earth bank and car park to the northeast of Snow Hill Station, and a trench was excavated within the bank area. The archaeological investigations aimed to identify any remains relating to Oppenheim''s Glassworks, the earliest known glassworks in Birmingham, identified by a previous desk-based assessment as potentially surviving within this area. The archaeological investigations established that the area had been substantially truncated by the construction of large foundation walls, floor surfaces, and service trenches, probably associated with the former Snow Hill Station, which had been demolished and replaced in the 1980s. Part of an earlier wall was identified that was possibly associated with the early glassworks, although as it was heavily truncated, and not associated with any other features or structures, little can be inferred from its presence within the site.
