What this record tells us

Border Archaeology was instructed in February 2010 by Jan-Willem Naerebout Esq., Group Operations Director, S and A Group Brook Farm Marden Herefordshire, to carry out an archaeological field evaluation of land to the west of Brierley Court Farm (NGR SO 4900 5615) prior to its development for use as Seasonal Agricultural Workers Accommodation (Planning ref: DCNC2009/0168/F) Woolhope Club summary, Archaeology, 2010, pp. 212: Some features may have been prehistoric post-holes or pits, but sparse finds prevented confirmation and several features were natural. No evidence was found for the intensive later prehistoric and Roman settlement previously recorded farther west, suggesting its eastern limit lay outside this site.
