Abstract:
Archaeological investigations were undertaken on behalf of Mr Peter Styles client at Brickwalls Farm, Gilberts Lane, Hanley Swan, Worcestershire (NGR: SO 8232 4227; HER ref. WSM 37563). Two areas of groundworks were monitored: Area 1: the removal of a concrete slab and the soil strip toward the frontage; and Area 2: narrow foundation trenches along the west boundary to the rear. No significant archaeological features, layers, structures, deposits or horizons were identified, nor artefacts recovered. The few finds retrieved, from two pits toward the frontage, were of late 19th to early 20th century date. A small number of pits and a linear ditch may be dated by association and the character of their fills. This negative result is unexpected, especially the total lack of even residual medieval pottery or tile, given the site's location and the wealth of evidence for medieval kiln activity in the immediate vicinity. However the actual area observed was of only small size; Area 1 had previously been occupied by a concrete slab for a modern barn, which had involved the previous removal of soils; while Area 2 comprised only narrow foundation trenches without an initial soil strip. Thus it is considered that there is still the potential for the site to contain archaeological remains, which were not exposed during this development.
