Abstract: |
An archaeological watching brief was undertaken at land off Himbleton Road, Worcester on behalf of David Norman, University of Worcester. A general ground reduction was being undertaken prior to piling for University Accommodation. Planning permission for the development was granted by Worcester City Council including a condition requiring archaeological access to the site. The site was located over a disused, backfilled gravel quarry from which a Palaeolithic Acheulian hand axe was recovered in 1915 . The area had been backfilled and levelled during the 20th Century as part of modern development of the area. |
