Abstract:
An archaeological watching brief was undertaken at Land East of Church House, Bartestree, Herefordshire (NGR SO 56749 41006). It was undertaken for Wardell Armstrong on behalf of their client, Keepmoat Homes, who intend the construction of a new residential development for which an outline planning application has been granted by Herefordshire Council. The site is located at the eastern edge of the settlement of Bartestree roughly 6km to the east of Hereford. Prior to the construction phase the site comprised pasture across two fields separated by a wood constructed stable block situated in the centre of the proposed development area. Earthworks associated with a possible moated site and partial deserted medieval village (DMV) are recorded to the immediate east of the site and early maps depict a holloway leading to the moated site running through the centre of the site. A building known as Den Cottage is depicted on early maps in the centre of the site and ridge and furrow is recorded in the northern field. Two small stone spreads were recorded in the north-western part of the southern field comprised of flat limestone and sandstone possibly forming the residue of a surface. A small quantity of 16th to early 17th century domestic pottery was recovered from one of these. Other finds recovered comprised a typical low-density residual spread of Roman, post-medieval and modern artefactual material. The central area where 'Den Cottage' had been located had been developed later in the 20th Century and was hardstanding and modern disturbance. This meant that no potential for archaeology survived in this area. No evidence of ridge and furrow was observed in the northern field. Apart from the stone spreads, no features of archaeological significance were recorded.
