Abstract:
The watching brief comprised of the observation by a competent archaeologist of all intrusive groundworks associated with the proposed development within the northern area of site, outside the footprint of the demolished Challenge building. These works comprised the machine excavation of eight Ground Investigation pits (Trenches 1-8), remediation trenching (Trenches 9 and 10) and ground reduction of further areas (Trenches 11 and 12). Between January and May 2022, Cotswold Archaeology carried out an archaeological watching brief during groundworks associated with the construction of a new medical centre at Hatherton Road, Walsall, West Midlands. The watching brief identified alluvial deposits deriving from the adjacent Ford Brook, which was overlain by a series of post-medieval made ground and levelling deposits. A series of structural remains, including walls, surfaces, a well and the remains of probable tanning tanks, were identified throughout the areas of observed groundworks, and are likely associated with the use of the site as a tannery, malthouse and curriers from the earlier 19th century until the 1930s, when a garage and car showroom were built on the site.
