Land south of Leadon Way, Ledbury, Herefordshire

Oxford Archaeology (OA) was commissioned by EDP Ltd on behalf of Barratt Homes to undertake an
archaeological evaluation as a condition (condition 23) attached to an appeal decision of a planning
application (APP/W1850/W/15/3009456) for a housing development on land to the south of Ledbury.
The evaluation was carried over the course of two days, 27th – 28th March 2017.
The evaluation consisted of four trenches targeting findspots of early to late prehistoric and Roman
date recovered during a fieldwalking survey carried out as part of the Ledbury Community Enterprise
Survey, which was conducted in 1983.
The evaluation did not identify any archaeological remains or recover any artefacts.
