Abstract:
In Novemeber-December 2006, Birmingham Archaeology undertook an Archaeological evaluation on behalf of Wm Morrison Supermarkets PLC, in advance of proposals for a new supermarket and petrol filling station in Wednesbury, West Midlands. Two areas were investigated: to the west of Camphill Lane and to the south of Camp street. A total of eight trial trenches were excavated following the completion of a Desk-based Assessment, an earlier stage of trial trenching, and an area excavation . Stage 2 trial trenching was intended to assess the evidence for surviving below-ground deposits related to medieval settlement and industry, and post-medieval industry. A roughly N-S aligned length of the possible town ditch was located west of camphill lane (trenches A-C). The same feature was further examined by the excavation to the south, where the ditch had been enlarged and used in connection with pottery production. Evidence of undated plot boundary ditches was recorded adjoining the russel street frontage, and a single 16th-17th century plot boundary recorded south of the camp street frontage. It is likely that any surviving medieval deposits will be unaffected by the new supermarket car park.
