Abstract:
An archaeological evaluation was undertaken on behalf of KM Properties Ltd at 27 Dog Lane, Bewdley, Worcestershire (NGR SO 7851 7539; WSM 31923). The site comprised the frontage of a plot on a street first documented in the late 15th century. The fieldwork involved the mechanical excavation of a single trench measuring 4×4×1.40m and subsequent hand-excavation in two sondages to a maximum depth of 2.68m. The evaluation identified slight evidence for 16th and 17th century activity on or near the site in the form of several sherds of pottery recovered from later contexts. The stratigraphic sequence began with deposits of made ground levelling a natural slope. Two structures were built (one replacing the other), and a barrel was set on the ground nearby. This was followed in the earlier 19th century by a second levelling event and the construction of contemporary surfaces. The surfaces were associated with a building that occupied part of the street, backing onto the present frontage. In the later 19th century, part of the rear wall of this building became the front wall of a new building occupying the present frontage. The street was raised in height and widened at this time, and the area between the walls filled in with soil to match the level. The later 19th century building appears to have stood until the 1960s, when it was demolished. The results of the evaluation indicate a site of high local and moderate regional significance, with considerable implications for current understanding of Bewdley's archaeology.
