Abstract:
A desk-based assessment was carried out by Birmingham Archaeology in September 2003 in advance of a planning application for a proposed gym at Stafford College. The application involves the development of a car park fronting onto Broad Street. The assessment examined the available documentary and cartographic evidence for areas of archaeological interest and also examined areas where archaeological remains may have been truncated. A site inspection was also made. It was concluded that due to the location of the site within the medieval city walls, and the findings from earlier excavations nearby, that there was a potential for the survival of Anglo-Saxon, medieval, and post-medieval remains. Excavations nearby, dating to the 1970's and 1980's suggest that as much as 3m of stratigraphy may be expected within the development area. Borehole data, however, is contradictory to this, and suggests that the natural drift geology may be encountered at a depth of 0.6m from the present ground surface. This area lies outside the conservation zone and site levels suggest little in the way of levelling may have truncated archaeological deposits. Although, nineteenth and twentieth century clearing may have impacted on any archaeological remains.
