Abstract:		 An archaeological desk-based assessment of archaeological aspects was undertaken at Lowesmoor Trading Estate, Worcester (SO 8525 5510). It was undertaken on behalf of Hampton Properties, who propose the demolition of a number of buildings across the site, conversion of other buildings, and the construction of a hotel. There is potential for the survival of Holocence alluvial deposits associated with the Frog Brook, but the palaeo-environmental potential of any deposits within the development area is likely to be limited. Archaeological deposits of Roman date have been proven on adjacent land to the west, and it is probable that Roman deposits extend into the development area. Roman deposits within the development area are likely to be of moderate potential, but this has not been demonstrated by field evaluation. The main importance of the development area is in the form of historic buildings, which comprises groups of 19th century brick industrial buildings. The majority formed a major element of the former Hill Evans and Co Vinegar Works (and a minor element formed part of the former Grainger Porcelain Works). The factory was one of only four purpose-built vinegar factories in the country. The buildings are not listed. Buried remains relating to both these industrial sites have been demonstrated to survive, in the form of foundations of demolished buildings and other buried structures (including bases of machinery). Recommendations for an approach to mitigate the impact of the development have been made in this report, in relation to both the buried archaeological deposits and the historic buildings.
