Abstract: |
An archaeological evaluation was undertaken at Land at The Clock House, Tettenhall, Wolverhampton (NGR 388782 300450). It was undertaken on behalf of CgMs Consulting, whose client McCarthy and Stone Retirement Lifestyles Limited intends the construction of residential apartments, access roads, car parking and landscape gardens. The site lies within the Medieval settlement of Tettenhall Regis, as defined by the Historic Environment Record. Planning permission for the development was approved by Wolverhampton City Council subject to conditions including a programme of archaeological works, The site is a former garden of a house known The Clock House, referring to a miniature of the Grade II listed clock tower constructed in Upper Green for the coronation of George V in 1911 which stands in the garden. Three trenches were excavated within the former garden revealing the natural substrate at a shallow depth. No archaeological features were recorded apart from one small undated pit and it is concluded that there is no archaeological potential within the site. |
