Abstract:		 The Centre of Archaeology was commissioned in October 2014 by Cameron Homes to undertake an archaeological watching brief in respect of a proposed housing development at Church Farm, Shrewsbury Road, Hadnall, Shropshire. The site is centred on NGR SJ 52164 20111, in the northern part of the village, approximately 7km northeast of Shrewsbury. Immediately adjacent to the site is the Church of St Magdalene. The works consisted of the excavation of foundation and service trenches, all of which were excavated by a 360 degree mechanical excavator equipped with a toothed trenching bucket and observed by an archaeologist. All stratigraphic sequences were recorded, even where no archaeology was present. The watching brief found that the previous farmhouse (removed as part of the scheme) was built on a series of levelling deposits extending, in places, up to 1.18m in depth. These various layers of hard core were then capped by a final site-wide levelling deposit upon which, and into which most recent iterations of the farm buildings and associated yards were constructed. These levelling deposits were all dated by the significant amount of modern pottery, CBM, glass and other detritus contained within them with the upper layers containing some plastics. The other discoveries of note are two wall foundations found in two of the plots excavated. Both of these wall foundations are associated with the recently demolished farm buildings that were on the site. No archaeological deposits or features were located during the course if these works.
