Abstract:
An archaeological evaluation was undertaken on behalf of CgMs Consulting Ltd at the former cattle market, Teme Street, Tenbury Wells, Worcestershire (NGR SO 5963 6850; HER re. WSM 42428). Seven trenches were excavated across the site and a number of layers and features of interest were recorded. The earliest recorded deposit was alluvium which was recorded at the base of two trenches. This is likely to have been the result of episodes of flooding to which the town has been prone throughout its history. A sondage within one trench revealed sands and gravels underlying this deposit. Medieval finds recovered from the upper horizon and features cut into this alluvium demonstrate that it is early medieval or pre-medieval in date. It is thought that medieval activity on the site represents backplot activity related to buildings fronting onto Teme Street and the dumping of material from the demolition of a house. The ditch terminus excavated in the southeast of the site could well be a precursor to the boundary shown on the Tithe map. Later features from the northwest of the site are likely to be related to the workhouse.
