Abstract:		 An archaeological watching brief was undertaken on behalf of Julie Wycherly at New House, 1 Abberton Road, Bishampton, Worcestershire (NGR SO 9907 5174; HER ref WSM48249) during the excavation of a footing trench. Historic mapping recorded that two arms of a medieval moated site were located to the south and east of New House. During the excavation of the footing trench part of the moat was exposed and recorded. Given the location of trench and the position of known sections of the moat, it is likely that this was part of the western side of the moat, and that the medieval site probably measured around 70m from east to west. Fragments of brick suggest the western arm of the moat was filled in during the mid to late 18th century and certainly prior to 1795 when the area was known as 'Mud Piece' on an Inclosure map. The upper fill of the moat was however modern in date and it is therefore probable that until 1976, the western arm of the moat survived as a slight earthwork which held no water and was backfilled to provide a level surface for construction of New House.
