Abstract: |
An archaeological evaluation and a watching brief were undertaken of land off Walcot Lane, Drake's Broughton, Worcestershire (NGR SO 9465 4831). They were undertaken on behalf of Worcestershire Wildlife Trust, who was excavating features to improve the habitat for wildlife and the water quality of the Bow Brook. Four evaluation trenches were excavated over an artificial meander and a fish refuge. Three areas, where re-profiling of the bank was undertaken, were monitored as part of a watching brief. No significant archaeological features, deposits, horizons or structures were identified, nor artefacts recovered during the archaeological works. A thin shallow band of alluvial sandy silt was observed within two trenches, although it was not considered suitable for palaeoenvironmental analysis. |
