Abstract:		 An archaeological evaluation was undertaken at the Civic Centre Site, Pershore, Worcestershire (National Grid reference 394772 246213). The evaluation was undertaken on behalf of CgMs Consulting (the Client) in response to a specification (the Specification) prepared by CgMs Consulting on behalf of Wychavon District Council who propose to redevelop the site as a Cottage Hospital. The proposal is considered by the Curator to have the potential to affect an archaeological site. The project aimed to determine whether any significant archaeological site was present and if so to indicate what its location, date and nature was. The trenches revealed a substantial build up of topsoil, buried soil layers and subsoil. Evidence of extensive root disturbance and tree throws was observed both through the upper topsoil and buried soil layers, correlating well with the cartographic sources which show the site in use as an orchard until the mid 20th century. In addition a small number of periglacial features were noted.
