Abstract: |
An archaeological watching brief for a new access road was undertaken on behalf of PM Harris Ltd at the former Tolladine Road Goods Yard, Tolladine Road, Worcester (NGR ref SO 8588 5553; WCM ref 101623). The programme of monitoring consisted of two elements, the monitoring of the excavation of foul sewer and storm drain trenches and the monitoring of the stripping of overburden within the road corridor. No significant archaeological features, horizons or deposits were observed and no artefacts were recovered. Modern overburden deposits were observed overlying natural Keuper Marl deposits during the stripping of the southern part of the new access road. A rapid photographic survey was also carried out of the former railway bridge to the south of the development area, which was removed as part of the works on the site. The bridge crossed Tolladine road and was constructed of steel and concrete on brick retaining walls, a section of which, to the north of the bridge, was also removed. |
