Abstract:		 Bloor Homes Ltd appointed Headland Archaeology (UK) Ltd to conduct a programme of archaeological works, consisting of the excavation of seven, 50 m x 1.8 m, one, 75m x1.8m and one, 25m x1.8m wide evaluation trenches, targeting previously identified geophysical anomalies. The work was undertaken as part of information to be submitted in support of a planning application for the construction of a Park and Ride scheme, associated access and other infrastructure at land to the north of the Rotherwas Relief Road, Grafton, Herefordshire (NGR SO 350627 236688). The archaeological evaluation confirmed the results of a previous geophysical investigation and identified a significant series of occupation deposits, and boundary features relating to a Romano-British enclosure, located towards the south of the proposed development site. However, towards the northern end of the application area, the evaluation identified that features indicated on the geophysical survey were of a non-archaeological origin. The identification of the geophysical anomalies indicates that the proposed development area has the potential for the survival of significant archaeological remains within the area of the proposed development. However, survival of the archaeological assets is highly dependant on the depth of ploughing and the build up of overburden within the site. The lower areas of the proposed development site have been proved to contain better-preserved remains when compared to the higher areas, the natural effect of soil creep providing a protective barrier from the damage associated with deep ploughing and modern agricultural activities.
