Between June 2000 and April 2004 four sites within the City of
Worcester were subjected to archaeological investigation by
Birmingham Archaeology (formerly Birmingham University Field
Archaeology Unit) and Mike Napthan Archaeology. The results from
these four sites are documented in this volume. One site is located
to the northeast of the historic city core at St Martin's Gate. The
three remaining sites are located to the north of the city in an
area known as The Butts. Archaeological excavations were undertaken
at 8-12 and 14-24 The Butts, and an evaluation at 1 The Butts. At
all four sites, the stratigraphy is characterised by Roman and
post-medieval deposits, with a distinct lack of intervening
material. Ditch features relating to Civil War remodelling of the
city's defences were located at St Martin's Gate, 8-12 The Butts,
and 14-24 The Butts, and it seems that this and later activity was
responsible for the disturbance and removal of earlier material.
