Abstract: |
An archaeological watching brief was undertaken on behalf of Capita Symonds at Shirley Baptist Church, Stratford Road, Shirley, Solihull (NGR ref (NGR SP 1175 7958). Planning permission has been granted by the Solihull Metropolitan Borough Council for the extension of the time limit on approved planning application 2006/2748 for the demolition and rebuilding of community facilities to the rear of church, including church offices, coffee shop, church shop, family support centre, a variety of community rooms and the installation of a wind turbine. This was considered by the Curator to have the potential to affect an archaeological site (HER ref MSI 5845) and a programme of archaeological works was specified as a condition of planning consent. The watching brief was undertaken on removal of a concrete slab and subsequent ground reduction and foundation excavations. No features or finds of archaeological significance were recorded and it is concluded that the either the site was heavily truncated during the construction of the church or community centre or that it lay outside the built up area of Shirley until the 19th Century. |
