  • Synopsis of the Archaeology of the Sandwell Priory and Holy Well
    APPENDIX 4 SELECT COMMITTEE ON HERITAGE AND CULTURE SYNOPSIS OF ARCHAEOLOGY OF THE SANDWELL PRIORY AND HOLY WELL Comments of Planning Archaeologist This paper represents the undertaking and finding of work carried out during the past thirty years at the above site. The site of Sandwell Priory, Sandwell Hall and the Holy Well lie 2km east of West Bromwich town centre, in a public open space known as Sandwell Valley Country Park. The first known archaeological excavations occurred on the site in 1958, with the aim of re-erecting large sections of the ruins. There are no records of this excavation with the exception of a newspaper account of the work. The major excavation work on the priory site was initiated by the Technical and Development Services Department of Sandwell MBC in August 1982 as an adjunct to the restoration of the nearby Sandwell Park Farm, with the aim of enhancing knowledge of the historic development of the Sandwell Valley. The archaeological excavations were ended in August 1988 and masonry exposed as a result of the work was subsequently consolidated for permanent display. The assemblage of artefacts that were collected as a result of the excavation has been stored within the cellarage of Wednesbury Museum with the exception of those used for display at Sandwell Park Farm. The excavations were undertaken as part of the Sandwell Valley Archaeological Project initially directed by Dr M A Hodder 1982 – 1987 and later by Mr G C Jones 1987 – 1988. Dr Hodder went on to become the first Borough Archaeologist for Sandwell. The excavation was financed by the Manpower Services Commission, and sponsored by Sandwell Metropolitan Borough Council.

The amount of litter and filth left behind was an eyesore and very unpleasant for the locals to have to put up with. The Chairman explained that it was an on going problem all over Kent and until the promised lorry park was built there was very little that the Parish Council could do to influence things other than to keep complaining to the police if necessary, and to contact their MP. He explained that the Council was as frustrated as the residents were and offered his sympathy. The residents said that they regularly called the police and if they came out it was long after the lorries had gone.
