Abstract:		 Border Archaeology was instructed by Kinsey Hern Esq. to carry out archaeological observation of groundworks relating to the proposed redevelopment of a former cattle shed at Upper House Lyonshall Herefordshire as part of a more extensive redevelopment of the farm complex. This comprised a single trench running northwest-southeast and measuring 18.8m × 0.8m × 1m. The observation was carried out on June 29th 2011. Groundworks revealed the natural glacial till at a depth of 0.5m below present ground level at the northwest extent of the trench, trending away to the southeast. Overlying this was a sterile silt deposit probably representing an accumulation of soil due to the effects of erosion and weathering (colluvium), which also trended southeast. Overlying this at the southeast extent of the trench was a substantial deposit of made ground deposit, probably contemporary with construction of the farm complex in the 1870s but possibly relating to an earlier phase of mid to late post-medieval building activity adjacent to the lane. A brick drain extending east northeast-west southwest was identified in the southeast-facing section of the trench probably relating to the earlier phase of construction noted above; the drain had been truncated during the insertion of a stone foundation pad forming one of a series of structural supports underpinning the later cattle shed.
