An archaeological watching brief was undertaken at Unit C5 and Chapel Walk, Crowngate Shopping Centre, Worcester (NGR SO 8494 5485). It was commissioned by Tuffin Ferraby Taylor LLP in advance of the excavation of a new gas supply trench, for which Scheduled Monument Consent has been granted by Historic England. A single trench of c 24.50m in length was excavated to a depth of 0.44m-0.58m below ground surface. No significant archaeological features or deposits were observed. Two modern, rubble filled layers containing residual pottery and tile were observed, considered likely to relate to the construction of the Crowngate shopping centre in the late 1980s. No remains associated with the Roman, medieval, and post-medieval settlement activity revealed during the Site 1 Deansway excavations adjacent were identified; neither was a 19th century soil horizon, identified during adjacent investigations in 2014.
