Abstract:
An archaeological evaluation was carried out during March 2016 at land to the south of 36 Bretforton Road, Badsey. Evesham, Worcs. as part of a planning permission granted for the erection of three detached dwellings. Historic mapping (OS 1885) shows the study site as formerly situated within the north-east part of a large open field stretching south from the Bretforton Road. There is clear evidence of Iron Age and Roman occupation within the parish of Badsey with unstratified finds from these periods recovered to the north-west and south-west. Approximately 130m to the west of the study site at 52 Bretforton Road an evaluation revealed deposits containing quantities of probable Iron Age pottery and animal bone indicative of settlement (WSM47978). Excavation within the study site itself revealed a stratigraphic sequence characteristic of an open rural environment comprising natural gravel overlain by a relict subsoil, sealed in turn by the existing topsoil. The absence of any archaeological deposits and a lack of finds would suggest little human activity within the study site apart from that associated with agricultural activities and that the Iron Age deposits recorded to the west do not extend this far to the east.
