Abstract:		 In Febuary 2004, Birmingham Archaeology carried out a desk-based assessment on 27-28 Park Street, Digbeth, Birmingham (SP 075865) for QDP Limited. The work was associated with a planning application to demolish the existing buildings on the site and to replace them with a new one. The assessment showed that the study area lay within the area of the medieval town and that there is a possibility that it retains below-ground archaeology of the medieval period. The existing building fronting the site was probably built in 1878 for Thomas and Alice Butler, last makers. From the end of the 19th Century a Thomas Butler carried on a business from this address as a cutter and paper knife maker. The firm continued to operate from the premises into the 1970s. The building itself is a three-storey brick structure, which has gone considerable alteration, including refenestration. The only original internal features to survive were two large segmental-arched fireplaces. There was no visible evidence for industrial activity. It is recommended that the survival of the below-ground archaeology is further assessed by archaeological evaluation.
