Abstract:
An archaeological evaluation was undertaken by Cotswold Archaeology in October 2010 on land at Uffnell's Farm, to the rear of Kilbury Drive, Worcester. Thirty eight trenches were excavated. The majority of the features exposed comprised furrows and field boundaries indicating that that the site lay within a medieval and post-medieval agricultural landscape. Historic mapping, starting with the 1842 Tithe Map, shows that this continued to the present day. In the north-western part of the site, previously unrecorded earthworks were investigated. These earthworks included a platform surrounded by a ditch and associated with a trackway, the former course of a diverted stream and a substantial ditch. Few finds were recovered, but it is possible that the platform was the location of a house or farm. Small quantities of Roman, medieval, early post-medieval and modern finds were recovered from these features, but their date remains uncertain. The Roman and medieval pottery is residual but none of the earthworks are depicted on the historic mapping and they probably pre-date the 1840s. The platform and original course of the stream were sealed by a buried ploughsoil cut by 19th-century 'narrow rig' furrows.
