Abstract: |
An archaeological evaluation was undertaken at 99, St Georges Lane North, Worcester (NGR 384909, 256301). It was commissioned by Phil Deeley of Matthews Construction, during the construction of residential properties in the former garden of the property. Planning permission has been granted subject to a programme of archaeological works. A single trench 14.5m long was excavated across the development area which exposed a Roman buried soil containing many pottery sherds of 1st-3rd century AD date and occasional slag remains. The finds are of comparable in date to finds and Roman features discovered to the north in the former Worcester City football ground. The lack of comparable features in the evaluation trench suggests however that the site was beyond the limits of the main Roman activity there. |
