Abstract: |
Fieldwalking was undertaken by Worcestershire Young Archaeologists' Club, with the assistance of Worcestershire Historic Environment and Archaeology Service, in 2004 at Peter's Farm, Middlehill, Broadway, Worcestershire (NGR SP 08821 37832; HER ref. WSM 34400). The site was divided into 55 grid squares of 20m2 and systematically walked. No previous archaeological work has occurred on the site, although crop marks show a number of enclosures. Analysis of the finds retrieved indicate that the area has been used since at least the Late Mesolithic, due to a flint assemblage characteristic of on-site knapping and potentially a base camp, with later Roman domestic activity occurring during the 2nd and 4rd century. The pattern of finds from the medieval period onwards suggests that the site has been purely agricultural since then. |
