Abstract:		 <summary>Archaeological evaluation of the route of the by-pass was undertaken at the request of the Department of Transport. Fieldwork did not identify significant deposits at any of the sites selected for evaluation. At Torton (HWCM1256), a Roman finds scatter did not spread onto the by-pass route; however, Neolithic flints (HWCM15596) were recovered from the topsoil. At Iverley, the Roman road from Droitwich to Greensforge (HWCM3152) had been eroded away due to constant use to the present day. Round Hill (HWCM9618), close to Wychbury Camp Iron Age hillfort (HWCM339; Scheduled Ancient Monument, County Monument No West Midlands 7), was investigated as a possible burial mound, but proved to be a natural deposit with no evidence of a burial. On the A449 link, a previously recorded Roman pottery scatter (HWCM2381), and remains suggested to be associated with the Anglo-Saxon minster estate at Ismere (HWCM1178), could not be traced. At Caunsall Bridge, further flint was recovered from sites already recorded as flint scatters (HWCM12120 and 12217), but no buried features were identified to compare with the nearby crop marks (HWCM135). {italon}Au(?abr){italoff} {italon}SMR Primary Record Numbers:{italoff} HWCM various, as indicated above
