Abstract:		 An evaluation was carried out at the proposed site of a residential development, which lay on the outskirts of the Roman town of Alcester and was crossed by the line of a Roman road. During the evaluation, Iron Age and Roman features were recorded, including pits, ditches, gullies and post holes. Roman and probable Iron Age pottery was recovered. A gully which may have been a remnant of medieval ridge and furrow was revealed. A magnetometer survey carried out in an attempt to elucidate the extent and nature of the possible Iron Age settlement features encountered modern disturbance, but also identified further features of possible archaeological origin.
