Abstract: |
A fieldwalking investigation was conducted across 235 ha of rural farmland within Worcestershire prior to a geophysical investigation being undertaken. These inital investigations provided information to provide an evaluation to be conducted.An archaeological evaluation was undertaken at the site of Lenchwick Wind Farm.The evaluation comprised 15 machine excavated trenches. Four trenches were identified as containing archaeological features in the form of at least two phases of landscape management, consisting of possible field boundaries or trackways, in use between the 1st to 4th century AD. It is possible this activity is associated with a potentially contemporary settlement activity present within close proximity to the trenches. Undated archaeological features were recorded in another two trenches which appeared to represent previous phases of boundary demarcation represented by a ditch terminal and isolated small posthole. |
