Abstract:		 The site lies on the northern side of the Roman town where previous archaeological interventions at Sanctuary House, the former Worcester Infirmary and at the Magistrates Court and Police Station have identified that well preserved layers and features associated with industrial activities survive. The majority of the archaeological remains on the site are Roman in date. The finds from these deposits are consistent with 2nd to 3rd century activity across the site. The surfaces identified in the west of the site are probable yards with features cut into them. The pits, especially the clay lined ones could have an industrial function i.e. associated with metalworking which has been identified elsewhere. However, a domestic/agrarian function for these features cannot be ruled out. In the east of the site Roman features are present but these are more than likely of an agrarian/domestic nature as less slag and pottery was recovered in this area. Roman features in all of the evaluation trenches were overlain by a dark earth layer which is found all over this part of Worcester and has been interpreted as a post-Roman return to agriculture. A thick deposit of post-medieval garden/horticultural soil overlay the dark earth. This was cut by several large pits.
