Abstract:		 An archaeological watching brief was undertaken on behalf of B and P Developments Midlands Limited on land adjacent to 'The Old House', Upton Snodsbury, Worcestershire (NGR: SO 9424 5433; WSM 32050). The project involved the observation of the site strip and the foundation trenches for the building. The strip was generally not undertaken down to the surface of the natural matrix, so no features were recorded in plan. A single pit or tree throw of recent origin was identified within the foundation trenches. This lack of archaeological features or finds indicated that the site has probably never been the subject of intensive activity, even though it lies within the centre of the medieval village. However the lack of a developed subsoil indicates that the site may have been the subject of landscaping, removing the subsoil and any shallow archaeological deposits within the surface of the natural matrix. Absence of evidence does not automatically imply evidence of absence. Thus the lack od archaeology cannot be taken to mean that there has never been activity within the site. Furthermore the surface of the natural matrix was only occasionally exposed within the site strip, so the project cannot be said to have realised its full potential.
