Overview
A small assemblage of finds includes four sherds of 17th and 18th -century pottery and an abraded fragment of undiagnostic brick or tile were recovered from the sieving exercise. The assemblage is a typical 17th and mid 18th -century assemblage of the West Midlands surviving as residual material in topsoil from Trenches 1 and 5. As there is no association with archaeological remains and the finds are small, undiagnostic sherds of low significance they were discarded.
The site archive comprises both physical and digital records. In total, this comprises unique 81 entries for archiving. Of these, 69 are digital recordings comprising the digitised paper archive, registers and photographs. Site records comprise a total of 11 A4 paper sheets which includes 8 context/trench sheets, 1 primary drawing register sheets, 2 photo register sheets, and 1 drawing sheet on permatrace. In addition to this, 57 high resolution photograph files were taken, of which 44 were submitted to archive. All of the paper records have been digitised and imported into an excel database, and all digitally collected spatial recording has been cleaned and assembled.
