Abstract: |
Archenfield Archaeology Ltd was commissioned by Berkeley Homes to undertake a programme of archaeological building investigation and recording prior to the redevelopment of the Royal Worcester Porcelain Works, Severn Street, Worcester. The development site constitutes approximately three-quarters of the whole Severn Street site and the remaining quarter is to be retained by Royal Worcester Porcelain Works. The development scheme involves the demolition of 26 large buildings and 6 small sheds, and the modification of 10 existing buildings in order to build 356 dwellings (comprising 317 apartments and 39 houses), a hotel, B1 space and A3 restaurants. The site is located on the south side of Worcester city centre and is bounded by Sidbury, St Peter''s Street, King Street, Severn Street, Mill Street and the Birmingham and Worcester Canal. An initial assessment of the buildings recognised that they are of historic and architectural importance. The archaeological work was conducted in accordance with the written scheme of investigation (WSI) issued by Archenfield Archaeology Ltd (2006), which was in response to a brief issued by Worcester City Museum Archaeology Section (2006). The WSI was issued to fulfil a condition in the planning approval which stated that a programme of archaeological work must be carried out before the redevelopment works commence. This document gives details of how the archaeological project was conducted and includes any conclusions drawn from the investigation. |
