The Service has a professional obligation to publish the results of archaeological projects within a reasonable period of time. To this end, and unless directed otherwise, the Service intends to publish the following summary in the most appropriate local or regional journal. The Worcestershire Historic Environment and Archaeology Service was commissioned by EC Harris to address the archaeological implications of a propose development next to All Saints Way, West Bromwich (NGR 400350 291770). The assessment addressed the nature and significance of archaeological remains on the site, the impact of the proposed development on these remains, and the form and outcomes of mitigation measures. The assessment identified and located significant remains of 18th and 19th century date, including remains of the first Baptist chapel in West Bromwich, built in 1810, and multiple burials in an adjacent plot. The assessment also identified the approximate location of two or more 18th century buildings and an 18th or early 19th century windmill. In addition, the assessment identified some potential for prehistoric and/or Roman remains. With regard to impacts and mitigation, it was concluded that most of these remains would be affected by the proposed development, and that the proper response would a programme of archaeological work including the removal and analysis of all human remains. |
