Abstract:		 Analysis of environmental samples from an excavation prior to redevelopment at Bournville Lane/Woodbrooke Road, Birmingham was undertaken on behalf of Warwickshire Museum Field Services. Samples from two pits were selected for assessment: one containing Grooved ware pottery of late Neolithic date and a second containing heat-shattered stone and presumed to also be prehistoric in date. Charcoal from oak and ash (which are particularly good wood burning species) dominated the late Neolithic pit with occasional fragments of hazel and pear/apple/whitebeam/hawthorn. Alder or hazel charcoal was dominant in the prehistoric pit, with smaller quantities of oak, pear/apple/whitebeam/hawthorn, birch, lime and possible ash. A single fragment of a hazel nutshell was also found in the late Neolithic pit.
