Abstract: |
An archaeological evaluation was undertaken at Norton Farm, 265, Birmingham Road, Bromsgrove, Worcestershire (NGR SO 9669 7214). It was commissioned by Troy Kidsley, Chartered Architect, on behalf of Parkgate Services Ltd, in advance of a proposed residential development, for which a planning application has been submitted. The site is located to the north-east of Bromsgrove on the site of a former farm which has since been in use as a residential property before becoming derelict. Two trenches were excavated across the site, targeting the areas most directly affected by the proposed development. No archaeological features or artefacts were observed in the trenches, although modern terracing was identified at the northern end of the site. The potential for further archaeological activity to survive at this site is deemed to be very low. It is considered that the results of this evaluation provide an accurate characterisation of the site. |
