Abstract:		 An archaeological excavation was undertaken at land north of Taylors Lane, Worcester (NGR SO 8593 5166). It was commissioned by RPS Group on behalf of their client, St Modwen Properties PLC, in advance of a proposed mixed use development. Planning permission has been granted subject to conditions including a programme of archaeological works. This was completed in two areas either side of a hedged boundary at the edge of a larger development site, located around 200m south of the A4440 Broomhall Way southern link road and bounded by Taylor's Lane to the immediate south. Previous geophysical survey and archaeological watching brief has taken place across the wider area but did not identify any significant archaeological remains; however, more recent archaeological evaluation of the site revealed features of interest in two trenches towards the southern limit of the development site. The excavation expanded upon the findings of two evaluation trenches and, although only a limited number of additional archaeological features were revealed, the majority of these were dated to the medieval and later. They appeared to be related to agricultural and small-scale craft or industrial working, with a focus of activity in the 13th to 14th century. Whilst apparently of relatively low-status in general, this broadly dispersed area of activity can be considered as a small-scale craft/industrial hinterland site linked to the presence of a moated complex at Upper Broomhall Farm, located immediately south of Taylor's Lane.
