Abstract:		 Birmingham Archaeology carried out an archaeological evaluation at land adjacent to the Crown and Cushion Public House, Wellington Road, Perry Barr, Birmingham (NGR SP 0671 9088) in February 2006. The evaluation was required by Birmingham City Council, to provide further information to facilitate the determination of a planning application for a proposed residential development. A desk- based assessment carried out prior to the evaluation indicated that the site had potential to contain archaeological deposits associated with a Roman pottery kiln, dating to the second century AD, discovered nearby in the 1950s. Evidence of settlement dating to the first and second centuries AD was also recorded at the kiln site. The site is also close to the predicted line of the Roman road Icknield Street, and near to the location of several finds of Roman coins. Three trial- trenches were excavated over the area of proposed development. No significant archaeological features were encountered during the evaluation. A shallow gully of probable pre- late 19th century date was recorded in one trench. This was partly filled by a degraded buried soil, overlying the natural sand and gravel, which was present in all the trenches. Another layer sealing the buried soil, also encountered in all trenches was probably a 19th century garden soil. Cutting these soils were the remnants of brick footings and associated brick surfaces associated with 19th century housing and related structures. No evidence of activity dating to the Roman period was recorded.
