Abstract:		 An archaeological desk-based assessment was carried out in January 2006 on land at the junction of Warwick Street and Warner Street, Bordesley, Birmingham (NGR SP 08248602) in advance of proposed demolition of existing buildings and residential development of the whole site. The site is located to the southwest of High Street Bordesley, which formed part of the principal road leading south from Birmingham since the medieval period. Indeed it is possible that, like Deritend, Bordesley began as a settlement in its own right, and capitalised on the increase in trade along this route after the granting of Birmingham''s market charter in 1166. Though the date and extent of the original settlement is unclear, previous archaeological work around High Street Bordesley has provided evidence of industry and occupation during the medieval period and onwards. Cartographic evidence suggests that subsequent to any potential medieval occupation, the site was undeveloped until the late 18th early 19th centuries, and was then occupied by a set of almshouses and a chapel, and various other, possibly industrial, buildings. The courtyard between the terraces of almshouses is currently beneath a car park, and has had no post-medieval or modern development. As a result, there is the potential for the survival of archaeological deposits that can significantly contribute to our understanding of the date and extent of Bordesley. Similarly, archaeological deposits dating to the postmedieval development of the site may survive beneath the present standing building, and can further contribute to our understanding of Bordesley during this period.
