Abstract:
Archaeological recording was carried out at Gloster Glades Road, Honeybourne, Worcestershire at the request of the Honeybourne Parish Council during construction of a sports ground and associated car park. Historic mapping (OS 1885) shows the study site as part of a much larger, almost triangular shaped open field forming part of an agricultural landscape that it likely to have remained unchanged for a long period of time. Housing currently standing to the east and north-east of the site marks the existing periphery of the village and the last period of residential expansion occurred around the 1950s. The HER has shown the majority of archaeological information is concentrated to the east where the focus of the early settlement of Cow Honeybourne is located. Excavation was limited with only the topsoil being removed in trench 1. The underlying relict subsoil was undisturbed and the natural substrate (Lias clay) was not reached. In trench 2, excavation went further and a series of narrow shallow trenches truncating the clay, but no archaeological deposits were observed during their excavation. Finds were recovered from the topsoil layers and comprised a broad range of redeposited material including mostly brick, modern roof tile and ceramic pipe fragments. Pottery sherds consisted mostly of 18-19th century earthenware suggesting an increased amount of agricultural activity during this period although the presence of a few sherds of abraded Roman/medieval pottery may point to earlier activity.
