Abstract: |
An archaeological watching brief was completed at New Road, Worcester, Worcestershire. It was undertaken on behalf of Worcestershire County Council during raising of the road level and installation of a buried box culvert as part of a flood alleviation scheme for the A44 (New Road). The works were required as a condition attached to planning permission granted by Worcester City Council. Deposits encountered were associated with late post-medieval and modern activity on the site. These included alluvial accumulations and made ground horizons as well as two late postmedieval ditches. These probably relate to late post-medieval to modern periods of flooding, activity associated with the Worcester Power Station and phases of improvement and maintenance of the A44. |
