Abstract:
In July 2013, the Dig Bromsgrove community archaeology project was undertaken on the site of the former Market Hall at the Hanover Street/St John Street car park in Bromsgrove, located between St John's Church and the Spadesbourne Brook, just to the south-west of the main high street of the town (NGR SO 9579706). A single trench accommodated up to twelve volunteers per day working on the excavation, which was co-ordinated by archaeologists from Worcestershire Archaeology. The archaeology revealed was all of post-medieval or later date and comprised the foundation remains and back-yards of former tenements that had previously existed along the frontage of St John Street until their demolition and clearance in the 1950s. Comparison with historic mapping and photographs of the site from before this date suggests that the archaeological remains were the back walls and outside space relating to houses 5 and 6, St John Street. This structural evidence was represented as house foundations, the remains of an alleyway, a small outbuilding, a cellar and a cobbled yard and demonstrated evidence of re-use of building materials from earlier substantial structures. Only a small area was investigated but it is possible to correlate the findings with known mapping of the area and to suggest that similar structural remains continue beyond the excavation area.
