Abstract:		 An evaluation was carried out within an earthwork enclosure prior to gravel extraction, for which planning permission had already been granted. A magnetometer survey was undertaken, and trial trenches were excavated to investigate geophysical anomalies, to test the above-ground earthworks and to sample the interior of the enclosure. No archaeological features corresponding to the anomalies were revealed, and no evidence for structures such as fences or palisades was found at the top of the bank. An oval feature lay just outside the enclosure, whilst a possible post-hole lay to the north of the enclosure ditch. The site lay within the boundaries of Cannock Chase, which had come into existence in the late 13th century. It was concluded that the most likely interpretation of the earthwork was as an enclosure or corral for the herding of animals, probably deer, within the Chase in the medieval or immediate post-medieval period.
