Abstract: |
An archaeological evaluation was undertaken at land off Cheltenham Road, Evesham, Worcestershire (NGR SP 0323 4194). It was undertaken at the instruction of CgMs Consulting on behalf of the Minton Group in support of a planning application for residential development. This report describes and assesses the significance of an heritage asset with archaeological interest potentially affected by the application. The impact of the application on the significance is assessed. The investigation revealed a complex of ditches surviving in the northern part of the site only. These are thought to relate to features to the south and south-west of the site which are known through cropmarks. The ditches were recorded in plan although due to site constraints hand excavation was limited. However, artefacts recovered from the top of the ditches imply that they are Romano-British in date. The southern half of the site contained no features of archaeological significance. |
