Abstract:
An archaeological evaluation was undertaken at Land off Cheltenham Road, Kinsham, Worcestershire (NGR SO 93622 35670). It was undertaken on behalf of Cathy Patrick (CgMs Consulting Ltd) at the request of their client Wychavon District Council who intend to develop the site. This document is intended to support a planning application (pre-application reference CWR9321). The site, a small rectangle of cleared scrub to the rear of houses fronting Cheltenham Road, lies immediately to the south-west of a Scheduled Ancient Monument comprising crop marks that are thought to represent an Iron Age / Roman enclosed settlement site, with associated trackways and possible field enclosures. A linear cropmark thought to be a prehistoric trackway runs from the core of this settlement approximately in the direction of the development site. Three trenches, each approximately 20m long were excavated across the site. The investigations demonstrated that the site had been cultivated until recently but no archaeological features were found. A single sherd of Romano-British pottery was recovered from a plough scar but is thought to be residual. No evidence was noted of the prehistoric trackway (part of SAM 1005314) and although the underlying substrate has been truncated in places by plough action the relative depths of both topsoil and subsoil would suggest that any such feature, if present, would have survived intact. Therefore it is concluded that the lack of archaeological features is a true representation of the site and not the result of later truncation.
