Abstract: |
An archaeological evaluation consisting of a single evaluation trench, 17m in length, was carried out on behalf of Mike Petrouis in advance of the construction of a new car-park at Hawkstone Hall, Shropshire. The new car park overlays a former range of outbuildings to the north of the hall. The trench exposed walls and floor levels associated with one of these buildings and parts of the associated walled trackways and yards, all probably late 18th to early 19th century in date. Archaeological deposits were exposed in both parts of the trench at a depth of 0.6m below the current ground surface. Relatively thick layers of demolition rubble covered these deposits. It seems likely that if levels of ground disturbance for the new car-park are kept to a minimum then its construction will not impact on the buried archaeological remains. |
