Abstract:		 Archaeological recording was carried out in November 2017 at land adjacent Rye Cottage, Netherton Lane, Elmley Castle, Worcestershire during development associated with the erection of a detached dwelling. The Historic Environment Record (HER) has shown that the site lies within an area where undated cropmarks show the potential for both prehistoric/roman remains to survive. It also lies within the planned medieval village of Elmley. There has been little archaeological investigation previously and evidence for the extent of the medieval settlement is based mostly on mapping of the outlying ridge and furrow and cartographic sources which include the 1837 Tithe and OS 1886 surveys. These show a ribbon development of six small detached dwellings occupying mainly, long east-west plots along the south side of Netherton Lane, between the brook to the east and the junction at the village cross to the west. Rye Cottage, a C17 dwelling with outbuildings, is situated centrally along the road frontage within one of these plots. This landscape has remained largely unchanged until after the post-war period when the fields to the south were developed for residential housing. No archaeological mitigation is known to have been carried out during these developments and their impact on the historic environment is unclear. Excavation revealed a stratigraphic sequence of layers indicating an open rural environment with little or no human activity prior to the occupation of the site in the C17 with the construction of Rye Cottage and the lack of residual finds from the excavation tends to support this interpretation.
