Abstract:		 The HEPAM has requested the further investigation and recording of archaeological remains of interest within the Site, in particular the foundation wall {105} which represents the earliest activity identified by the archaeological evaluation. In order to effect this, the HEPAM has stipulated a 10m by 15m excavation area, placed in order to target the likely area of interest, as shown on Drawing No. BM12026-005B. The work was undertaken ahead of a new development comprising demolition of existing buildings and construction of a replacement dwelling with detached garage, for which planning permission has been granted by Wyre Forest District Council. The excavation was undertaken in accordance with a written scheme of investigation (WSI) produced in consultation with Emma Hancox, the Historic Environment Policy and Advisory Manager at Worcestershire County Council. The archaeological work comprised the excavation of a 150m2 area, undertaken over two days (1st and 2nd July 2021). The investigation targeted and exposed a stone wall, exposed during the trial trenching and previously thought to be associated with the 17th century or earlier manor house. However, the wall was found to post-date a post-medieval to modern rubbish pit and as such had no relation to the 17th century or earlier manor house and is of no further archaeological interest. The investigation established that the illegal demolition and rebuilding of the manor house in the 1990s had destroyed all trace of any archaeological remains within the footprint of the building and no further archaeological work is required.
