Archaeology survey on Hovels in the Vale of Evesham.
During the last few years, Worcestershire County Council’s Archive and Archaeology Service has undertaken a survey of the hovels of the Vale of Evesham. The Community Project Officer, Nina O’Hare worked with a group of volunteers recruited from u3a and other organisations to carry out the survey work on the ground following a detailed study of historic maps enabled the identification of the likely locations of hovels.
A lot of the survey work was carried out during the Covid lockdowns, when we were allowed out, as it was a requirement that surveyors went out in pairs for health and safety reasons. I then volunteered to write up the project and the parish summaries, while stuck indoors. These have been edited and have now been finalised into the attached booklet.
All of the parish maps are available on the County Council’s web site.

Harvington Community Support Group
Is the new name for what used to be called the Harvington Pastoral Support Network.
As a group, we are happy to help anyone in the village who needs assistance with appointments, shopping, small bits of DIY, etc as well as friendly visiting and general support.
The group is overseen by Rev. Richard Thornily but this isn’t to suggest that it’s focussed particularly on people involved with the church; we’re open to everyone, and all age groups! So, as always, do get in touch with us if you think we can lend a hand.
