Abstract:		 An archaeological evaluation was undertaken on behalf of Dr. D. Payler at Ham Court, Upton-on- Severn, Worcestershire (NGR ref SO 8524 3855; SMR ref WSM 35099). A 15m trench and two smaller trenches were excavated in the paddock to the south of the present Ham Court building. The trenches were located on the site of the known location of the earlier manor house, possibly built in the 17th century and demolished in 1927, though having undergone considerable enlargement and alteration in the 1770's. Sequences of building phases were observed. The first phase consisted of two parallel blue lias walls. Above these walls substantial brick footings followed the earlier footprint though they were clearly of a later date. In addition a curved brick wall to the west was noted, this wall might have been part of the brick manor house, though it may have been part of the alterations made in the late 18th century. A small number of undated features were also observed; these probably related the construction/usage of the original manor house. Apart from the earlier blue lias stone structure there was no evidence to suggest any considerable pre-17th century activity on the site, either in the form of structural or artefactual evidence. That is not to suggest that wholesale removal and remodelling of the site prior to the post-medieval building phases could not have taken place.
