Abstract: |
A community test pitting project, Small Pits, Big Ideas, was undertaken in White Ladies Aston by Worcestershire Archive and Archaeology Service in 2017-18, on behalf of Worcestershire Archaeological Society. The project, funded by Heritage Lottery Fund, worked with the Green Fingers Project and University of Worcester to enable local Looked After Children to excavate a series of eight test pits in gardens and open spaces across the village of White Ladies Aston, Worcestershire (SO 92167 52241). Test pits were excavated in 10cm spits, following Professor Carenza Lewis' methodology, and pottery was used as a proxy indicator for the presence and density of occupation nearby. |
