Abstract:
An archaeological auger survey and watching brief was undertaken at Battle Well Pond, Battle Well Field, Evesham, Worcestershire (NGR SP 0379 4552). The archaeological evaluation was undertaken on behalf of The Simon de Montfort Society, who intends to improve the condition of and conserve the Battle Well Pond for which a planning application has been submitted. The works are in response to a pond management plan produced by Worcestershire Wildlife Trust as part of the Higher Level Stewardship land management agreement which recommended that removal of vegetation and silt should occur with the aim of improving water quality in the pond to enhance its biodiversity potential. The auger survey and watching brief revealed shallow deposits of post-medieval and modern origin indicating that the current plan and profile of the pond have been subject to postmedieval or modern alteration, probably for agricultural purposes, and then has been backfilled by extensive quantities of waste material. The archaeological works have not been able to identify any deposits or artefacts which are associated with the putative medieval pond or the chapel which, according to documentary sources, was located in close proximity to the Battle Well.
