Post-medieval building at 18/20 School Road, Alcester.

Description of this historic site

Hand made bricks and cellaring were recorded during building works. The absence of the building on the late 19th century first edition OS map suggested that the cellaring belonged to an earlier, possibly 18th century building. The site is located at 18/20 School Road, Alcester.

Notes about this historic site

1 A watching brief during the excavation of foundation trenches recorded a large quantity of hand-made brick fragments within the northerly sections. The building contractor reported that they had encountered cellaring when excavating in this part of the site. The late 19th century first edition OS map did not show any building on the site in the area excavated, suggesting that the bricks and cellaring belonged to an earlier, possibly 18th century building.
