Abstract: |
An archaeological watching brief was undertaken on behalf of Quantum Construction Ltd at 22, Sansome Place, Worcester (NGR SO 8523 5523; HER ref. WCM 101508). During ground works on a series of walls and deposits were identified. Many of the walls appear on the 1st edition OS map of 1884 and probably all relate to previous Victorian buildings. The deposits identified are thought to relate to demolition of these buildings and others which occupied the site in the late 19th to 20th century. The ground works were undertaken to a maximum depth of 0.60m and did not reveal deposits or structures pre-dating the Victorian period, nor the natural matrix. All finds recovered were residual, date from the late 18th century onwards and relate to the discard of domestic rubbish. |
