Abstract:		 A desk-based assessment was undertaken on behalf of Halcrow Group Ltd of Abbey Bridge and Viaduct, Evesham, Worcestershire (centred on NGR SP 034 431; HER ref. WSM 40836). The assessment analysed information relating to archaeological remains in the vicinity, including reports on previous investigations, aerial photographs, and archives. On this basis, it is considered that remains of late prehistoric and Roman settlement may be adversely affected by the development. It is recommended that a field evaluation be undertaken to establish whether such remains are indeed present. The assessment also addressed the architectural significance of the bridge and viaduct themselves. They were designed and built together in the late 1920s by the County Surveyor, B C Hammond, the contractors being Thomas Vale and Sons of Stourport. Neither structure is listed, however the bridge has been described in the latest edition of Pevnser as 'a notable ferro-concrete period piece'. The assessment recommended that that both structures be recorded before demolition.
