Abstract:
A programme of archaeological work was undertaken on behalf of GVA Grimley and Mark Brock Consulting Engineers at Warwick House, Wells Road, Malvern, Worcestershire (SO 7752 4574; WSM 31175). Three buildings due to be demolished were recorded. The cottage to the rear was determined to be the earliest surviving building on the site, dated to the early 19th century. It is a two-up, two-down handmade red brick building, on the tithe map of 1846. It is abutted by the large workshop to the west. The present Warwick House was built between 1846 and 1888, established in 1833 as a drapers and expanded in the 1840s/50s. Three trenches were excavated along the projected route of a medieval ditch. It was found to be linear and maintain the alignment. The feature wasn't bottomed, but the earliest layers contained 13th-14th century material. Later deposits contained 15th-16th century material. It is likely the western boundary of Great Malvern Priory. Environmental material included cattle, sheep and pig bone, fresh water and marine fish, wildfowl and eggshell. The main ditch was truncated by a deep sub-oval pit, cut by a ditch. Neither can be assigned a function. The pit contained material of 13th-16th century date, like the major ditch. It may represent redeposited material from the ditch. The smaller ditch contained 17th-18th century material and a single modern sherd. It is not noted on any modern maps of the site, so the feature is likely of 17th-18th century date. It is unclear what its function was.
