Abstract: |
An archaeological evaluation was undertaken on behalf of David McLean Developments Limited at Plot 7, Masshouse, Birmingham (NGR SP 075 872). The site was thought to have the potential for industrial archaeology from the post-medieval period, but unfortunately no such significant archaeology was found. The two trenches both had a number of layers probably dating to the late 20th century, whilst a couple of services certainly pre-dated that period. A possible ditch or pit was located in the south section of trench 3, but unfortunately no dating evidence was retrieved from it, nor any conclusive proof of exactly what form it took. However, it was sealed by the late 20th century layering. No evidence of any structure or industrial process from the post-medieval, or any earlier period, was found. |
