Abstract: |
An archaeological watching brief was undertaken on behalf of R H Philips and Co at Daniel's Farm, Claines, Worcestershire (NGR SO 8549 5940; HER ref WSM 70549), in preparation for the erection of a new stock shed with associated hardstanding and drainage. A desk-based assessment, produced in preparation for the development, indicates that the site sits within a comprehensive Iron Age, Roman and later rural landscape. One open area and three drainage trenches were observed. No significant archaeological features or deposits were observed, nor artefacts pre-dating the later post-medieval and modern period recovered within the confines of the groundworks. The undisturbed natural geology was not exposed within the largest area. The deeper trenches all lay on the eastern side of the site and did expose the natural substrate, but were of very limited scope. Therefore the limited nature of much of the works means that the presence of archaeology within the development area cannot be entirely ruled out. |
