Abstract: |
Archaeological recording-watching brief Archaeological recording (watching brief) was carried out during September 2021 at Crowle Jubilee Playing Field, Church Road, Crowle, Worcs., in connection with a new community building, car park, relocation of allotments, new shed and proposed covered area. The development area was adjacent to a shrunken medieval village (WSM07880). The two areas of works varied in size, archaeological recording of the new parish hall extension was small in scope covering mainly the construction footprint of the internal floor areas of the new building whilst the new car park the scope of works covered a much larger area. Both areas were stripped by machine exposing the surface of the natural clay. There was no indication of earlier human activity, instead the clay was sealed by a layer of relict subsoil probably associated with an earlier agricultural landscape which was in turn overlain by the modern topsoil. The absence of archaeological deposits from the excavations and the lack of residual finds supports the hypothesis that there has been little or no human activity with the development areas other than that associated with agricultural activity. |
