Abstract: |
An archaeological watching brief was undertaken at 42, Dagtail Lane, Dagtail End, Redditch, Worcestershire (NGR SP 03884 63546), on behalf of Mr John Bennett, who intended to construct a new dormer bungalow for which a planning application has been submitted. Three trenches were observed across the site which was considered to have the potential to contain medieval or post-medieval remains which are present in the wider area. The trenches revealed a full stratigraphic soil profile, and were excavated to the natural clays and gravels. No significant archaeological features, deposits, structures, horizons or layers were revealed, nor artefacts recovered. A line of postholes denoting a modern fence line, and a segmented gully were revealed. The gully was undated and of unknown function, but may relate to the modern postholes, as they were orientated perpendicular to the gully, which was parallel to the present street frontage. All finds were of modern date. A sample taken from the gully did not contain identifiable environmental remains. |
