Abstract:
An archaeological evaluation and building recording project were undertaken on land off Raglan Street, Wolverhampton in two separate stages, February 2012 and October 2013. It was completed on behalf of Cube Management LLP and Bowmer and Kirkland. The intention is to construct retail, residential and leisure facilities on the site and a planning application has been submitted to Wolverhampton City Council. This report on the archaeological evaluation describes and assesses the significance of a heritage asset with archaeological interest potentially affected by the application. Six trenches were excavated across the site and the majority of the archaeological remains uncovered appear to date from the late 19th century. These were mainly brick built structures such as foundation walls, cellars and wells. A limited number of floor or yard surfaces survived and a small number of the artefacts were recovered pre-dating the 19th century. Most of the features can be correlated with historic map evidence showing the area in the later 19th and early 20th century. Many of the structures revealed were in close proximity to the surface and had been damaged and truncated by later activity. The structures had in turn truncated an earlier worked soil horizon observed in each of the trenches across the site. This layer contained pottery dating from the 17th to later 18th or early 19th centuries and suggested that the site was fields and gardens in the medieval and post-medieval periods, outside the historic core of Wolverhampton. The Attwood Building was recorded. The structure was constructed in the 1940s and retained a number of architectural features from this time including the fittings of a self-contained flat.
