Abstract:
Allen Archaeology Limited was commissioned by Harris Lamb Property Consultancy to undertake an archaeological evaluation by trial trenching on land off Lower Howsell Road, Lower Howsell, Great Malvern, Worcestershire, prior to determination of a planning application for a residential development. Desk based assessment identified the potential for Roman activity on or near to the site, but a geophysical survey revealed little evidence for archaeological activity other than a high level of modern disturbance, resulting from the presence of several allotments across the site. Eight trenches were excavated over anomalies identified during geophysical survey. Trench 1 exposed a large feature at the northeast end of the trench; this extended beyond the limits of the trench and was not full excavated but was of modern date, and appears to be associated with the use of the site as allotment gardens in the early 20th century. Trench 3 exposed three small northeast to southwest orientated ditches. These were also of early modern date and are most likely to be associated with the allotment gardens. Trench 6 exposed four north to south orientated ditches again of modern date. As with the other features encountered at the site they are most likely to be associated with 20th century allotments at the site. The remaining trenches (2, 4, 5, 7 and 8) were devoid of archaeological features or deposits.
