Abstract:
A watching brief was undertaken on behalf of Hagley Hall Estates at Hagley Obelisk, Hagley Hall, Hagley, Worcestershire (NGR SO 921 816; HER ref WSM 42104). The excavations comprised of five test pits. Three of the pits were located against the obelisk whilst the other two were sited to test the ground away from the monument. The foundations of the obelisk were reached and were found to be constructed of mortared brick and sandstone rubble. A deposit underneath the topsoil and overlying the natural contained quantities of brick and sandstone rubble. This was interpreted as debris from the construction of the obelisk in the mid 18th century and from later repairs to the monument. No earlier features, layers or structures were identified during the project.
