Abstract:
An archaeological evaluation and building recording was undertaken at the former Heenan and Froude Social Club, Sansome Place, Worcester (NGR SO 8516 5521). It was undertaken on behalf of BM3 Architecture Ltd, for Worcester Community Housing, in advance of a residential development for which a planning application has been submitted. The evaluation established that well preserved archaeological remains dating to the medieval and post-medieval periods survive on the site. These included a number of linear features including a possible burgage plot boundary ditch and a post-medieval drain. No prehistoric or early medieval activity was identified and evidence of Roman activity on the site was limited to a single sherd of pottery deposited in a later ditch. The later monitoring works found that the majority of the development area had been disturbed and then built up during the post-medieval period with cellarage being seen at the southern limit of the site and dumps of material seen over the remainder of the area. One of the deposits contained fragments of medieval material culture although this was the result of redeposition, not within a medieval feature. The roughly east to west aligned medieval ditches revealed within the previous evaluation were not identified during the later investigations. It is unclear if this is due to the modern deposits lying to a great depth within the western portion of the site, or due to the constraints of the watching brief.
