Abstract:		 An archaeological evaluation was carried out during March 2016 at 238 High Street, Welford on Avon, Warks. In advance of a proposal to demolish the existing building and for the erection of two detached dwellings on the site. Historic mapping indicated little activity within the study site until the erection after 1966 of the former building. A 19th century cottage in the adjacent plot suggests some earlier sub-division of the land and a pit recorded within the site during the trial trenching is probably associated with the earlier occupation of this building. The two drainage trenches to the west of the site revealed that the stratified deposits survive intact within the former garden area and that these comprise a sequence of natural clay overlain by a relict subsoil and garden topsoil. There was no evidence of a relict subsoil overlying the natural sand or clay within either of the two trenches located within the proposed plots and it is assumed that this had been removed during construction of the previous building. The absence of any earlier features or deposits in addition to the lack residual finds from the excavation suggests an open rural agricultural environment with little human activity within the study site until development after 1966.
