Abstract: |
An archaeological evaluation was undertaken at Site adjacent to Martley C of E Primary School, Martley, Worcestershire (NGR SO 7585 5991). It was commissioned by CgMs Consulting Ltd on behalf of their client who intends to develop the site for housing, for which a planning application has been submitted. Six trenches were excavated in a grid array across the site. The site lay on sloping ground and the works revealed a series of probable colluvial deposits built up against a field boundary in the lowest part of the site. This was consistent with the identification of a series of plough furrows which were orientated down the slope. The evaluation also revealed two undated postholes, which may relate to the site's former use as an orchard. No evidence of any other archaeological activity was identified during the evaluation and no finds were recovered during the works. |
