Abstract:
An archaeological evaluation and watching brief was undertaken at Worcester Golf and Country Club, Boughton Park, Worcester, Worcestershire (NGR 83214 53701). It was commissioned by insideout a+i Ltd, who intends to construct a new two storey golf shop on the spot previously taken up by the former single storey shop for which a planning application has been submitted and approved by Worcester City Council. The works revealed a moat that was excavated on the east side of Boughton Park manor house. Believed to be of probable medieval origin the archaeological works could only conclusively prove that the feature had been in use and cleaned until the late 18th to early 19th centuries, after which it was infilled with a combination of building rubble and redeposited natural material. A later smaller gully ditch was then cut into the top of this backfill along the same orientation, along with a brick lined well. These are believed to have been used until the late 19th or early 20th centuries when the whole area was covered with further demolition material and a range of buildings constructed, associated with the present golf and country club use of the park.
