Abstract: |
An archaeological excavation was undertaken at BTR Land, Brockhill East, Redditch, Worcestershire (NGR SP 0366 6884). It was undertaken on behalf of Wardell Armstrong, whose client intends to construct up to 296 dwellings for which a planning application has been submitted. Two areas measuring c.50m x 22m were excavated, with one revealing a large pit of Bronze Age date. This, like a similar pit excavated during the evaluation stage, was filled partially with waste material derived from domestic activity, and is indicative of low level occupation of the landscape during this period. The second area contained evidence for medieval ridge and furrow, and residual Roman pottery, suggesting some as yet undiscovered Roman activity in the area. |
