He found himself in another county that was already no more than a memory by the time of Domesday Book THE LOST COUNTY OF Winchcombeshire Last summer I was invited by the Worcestershire branch of the Young Archaeologists’ Club to an exhibition of their field work on a site near Broadway on the edge of the Cotswolds. They had spent many hours walking a ploughed field, recording the results and analysing the finds, many of which are Roman and show that there must be a Roman farmstead in the field. It is an exemplary project. This visit took me to a part of the country which I find very attractive, not really the Cotswolds (which I don’t really like – too flat and featureless for me) but just off the northern end, on the edge of the valleys of the Severn and Avon. It is an area of flat fields and small isolated hills. On the edge are the towns and villages of Tewkesbury and Bredon to the west, Evesham to the Opposite: Bredon, Above: Abandoned north and Winchcombe to the south.

  • Lime Kilns in Worcestershire
    Lime Kilns in Worcestershire Nils Wilkes Acknowledgements I first began this project in September 2012 having noticed a number of limekilns annotated on the Ordnance Survey County Series First Edition maps whilst carrying out another project for the Historic Environment Record department (HER). That there had been limekilns right across Worcestershire was not something I was aware of, particularly as the county is not regarded to be a limestone region. When I came to look for books or documents relating specifically to limeburning in Worcestershire, there were none, and this intrigued me. So, in short, this document is the result of my endeavours to gather together both documentary and physical evidence of a long forgotten industry in Worcestershire. In the course of this research I have received the help of many kind people. Firstly I wish to thank staff at the Historic Environmental Record department of the Archive and Archaeological Service for their patience and assistance in helping me develop the Limekiln Database, in particular Emma Hancox, Maggi Noke and Olly Russell. I am extremely grateful to Francesca Llewellyn for her information on Stourport and Astley; Simon Wilkinson for notes on Upton-upon-Severn; Gordon Sawyer for his enthusiasm in locating sites in Strensham; David Viner (Canal and Rivers Trust) in accessing records at Ellesmere Port; Bill Lambert (Worcester and Birmingham Canal Trust) for involving me with the Tardebigge Limekilns Project; Pat Hughes for her knowledge of the lime trade in Worcester and Valerie Goodbury
