Abstract: |
Border Archaeology Ltd (BA) was instructed by Russell Pryce Planning Manager Collins Design and Build Ltd to carry out a programme of Archaeological Field Evaluation of approximately 3ha of land to the N of Roman Road and W of the A49 Holmer West Hereford (NGR: SO 50225 42445) in connection with the conversion and extension of the listed farmhouse to apartments, conversion of two traditional barns to residential use, demolition of more modern barns and new build residential on the available land of up to 60 units. Twenty-two trenches measuring 20m in length and 1.90m wide were excavated to natural deposits in order to determine and record the nature and extent of any archaeological remains which may have been present on the site. A possible NE-SW linear feature which contained a 13th century pottery assemblage was partially excavated in the NNW baulk of trench 14. Due to its position within the trench, the full characteristics of this feature could not be established; a fence/gate/marker post was also removed from trench 14 dated to the post-medieval period. No further features of archaeological significance were present within the remaining 21 trenches, however there were areas which contained residual pottery and CBM dated from Medieval to the Post-Medieval. |
