Abstract: |
Archaeological investigations were undertaken at Yates Court Central Market, Evesham, Worcestershire (NGR SP 0366 4408). It was commissioned by Willmott Dixon Ltd, on behalf of their client who has constructed an extension to Yates Court care home for which a planning application was submitted. The site lies within the former Central Market to the west of the High Street in Evesham. It was considered that there was a potential for the survival of medieval deposits relating to the High Street frontages. An archaeological excavation undertaken in 2000 recorded Iron Age deposits in the plot immediately to the north and it was also considered that there was archaeological potential for the survival of similar deposits within the site. Three trenches were excavated in April 2013 within the former Central Market. A fourth was excavated in October 2103 in an area of waste ground to the north of the Central Market after live services had been disconnected. Groundworks in the eastern area of the site were monitored during construction as this was impractical to evaluate earlier. |
