Abstract: |
An archaeological evaluation was undertaken on behalf of Worcestershire County Council Property Services at The Fire Brigade Training Centre, 51 Friar Street, Droitwich, Worcestershire (NGR ref SO 8982 6350; SMR ref WSM 35611). A single trench to the eastern edge of the present fire station car park was excavated to a depth of 2.10m below the present ground surface. No deposits of any archaeological interest were observed during the evaluation. The sequence of deposits appeared to have derived from the importation and dumping of material, and/or the construction and levelling of the present car park surface during the 20th century. The majority of the material appears to have been imported and deposited across this area in large quantities. This dumping of waste material has either been carried out in order to raise the ground level, or more likely, to infill after subsidence. |
