Abstract:
Border Archaeology was commissioned by Mr G Powell of Sollers Hope Farm, Sollers Hope, Herefordshire to undertake Archaeological Observation of groundworks relating to the construction of an egg-production unit at Sollers Hope Farm. The site lies some 250m to the east of an 11th -century motte and finds dating to the prehistoric period have been discovered in the area. The site is also close to the Iron Age hillfort sites of Capler Camp, located 1.9km to the west, and Oldbury Camp, which lies 1.8km east-southeast. No finds or features were seen during the course of the work. It is possible that the steep slope of the ground at the rear of the egg-production unit meant that the area has remained unoccupied. A considerable depth of subsoil was present, probably representing an accumulation of colluvium (sediment transported by slope processes). The area to the east of the egg unit (Area 2) was low-lying and may have been subject to flooding.
