Abstract: |
An archaeological evaluation was undertaken by Cotswold Archaeology in May 2013 at land south of Lichfield, Staffordshire. A total of 19 trenches was excavated. Industrial activity relating to clay extraction and the production of brick and tile was identified within the north-eastern quarter of the site. A total of five large pits interpreted as clay extraction pits and the bases of two brick clamps were recorded. A trackway was identified within the northern half of the site dating to the post-medieval period, although it may have earlier origins. Post-medieval/modern ditches relating to agricultural activity and land division were also identified. |
