Abstract: |
The Historic Environment and Archaeology Service of Worcestershire County Council was commissioned by Halcrow Group Ltd to undertake archaeological work along a length of Bromyard Road on the west side of Worcester (centred on NGR SO 824 545; WCM 101815- 7). The work was associated with a scheme to provide new bus lanes and facilities for cyclists and pedestrians (the West of Worcester Bus Rapid Transport Corridor). One long trench was excavated in a field on the north side of the road, at Earl's Court Farm, between Tudor Way and Earl's Court Cottage (Area A, Trench 1). The trench was intended to mitigate the impact of the proposed development on deposits identified in a previous evaluation. Ten smaller trenches were excavated on the south side of the road to investigate other areas affected by the scheme. Eight trenches were excavated at Grove Farm, in a fir plantation directly opposite the first trench (Area B, Trenches 4-11) and two trenches were excavated on a grass verge opposite Grove Crescent (Area C, Trenches 2 and 3). |
