Abstract:		 Wessex Archaeology was commissioned by CSa Environmental Planning, on behalf of Taylor Wimpey Midlands, to undertake an archaeological watching brief during the construction of a new housing development on land to the south of Griffin Lane, Dickens Heath, Warwickshire (NGR 411288 275996). A previous archaeological desk-based assessment found that, although no archaeological remains were known to exist within the Site, evidence from the wider study suggested that there was potential for archaeological remains to be disturbed or destroyed during development. The Warwickshire Planning Archaeologist determined that an archaeological watching brief would be required in order to ensure that any archaeological remains would be recorded. A Written Scheme of Investigation for the watching brief was approved by Solihull Metropolitan Borough Council's archaeological advisor. Topsoil stripping for the establishment of a construction compound and the excavation of nine foundation and service trenches were monitored. Modern made-ground deposits were recorded across the development site and were not of archaeological significance. No archaeological features or artefacts were identified during the watching brief: this is considered to be representative of the archaeological potential of the proposed development area as a whole.
