Abstract: |
An archaeological evaluation was undertaken by Worcestershire Archaeology in April 2021 at Green
Lane and Mayfield Road, Rainbow Hill, Worcester (NGR SO 8555 5636). The project was
commissioned by Platform Housing Group, with four small evaluation trenches excavated across an
area of proposed residential development.
The archaeological deposits identified were all of post-medieval and modern date, dating from the
18th century onwards. There were no surviving structures or features related to known settlement in
this area, but a demolition horizon and domestic finds from buried topsoil and subsoil layers can be
linked to the former presence of buildings and associated garden areas shown on historic maps, prior
to their demolition in the 20th century. |
