Abstract: |
An archaeological watching brief was undertaken on behalf of Mr James Hutcheon at Foxhill Barn, Hollands Road, Eckington, Worcestershire (NGR SO 9311 4072; HER ref WSM 39867). The site strip, foundations and associated service trenches for a single storey extension to the existing threshing barn and were monitored. The natural matrix was observed, directly below hardcore surfaces and made ground within the farm yard and below undisturbed subsoil beyond the extent of the farm yard. The hardcore layers, which contained 20th century debris, represented the foundations of the former cattle shelter shed and yard surfaces outside the barn. No significant archaeological finds or features were identified during the project although it was unclear if the Iron Age and Romano-British activity previously identified to the south and east extends into this area. |
