Abstract:		 An archaeological evaluation was carried out on agricultural land just outside the town of Shifnal, on Coppice Green Lane, Shifnal, Shropshire. The site is located at National Grid Reference SJ 7560 0870, and it is proposed that the land is developed for housing with associated access roads. A total of 41 archaeological trenches were excavated, largely showing a sequence of plough soil straight over natural deposits. Few remains of an archaeological nature were encountered, with the most probable feature being a shallow gully located in Trench 3. Other features were noted such as a line of modern post holes and a shallow deposit (likely ploughing due to a furrowed base) in Trench 12 and a possible pit in Trench 39. All features were undated but cut into the natural sand, gravel and clay, considering the scarcity of features it is proposed this area has always been agricultural. Given the date and quality of the archaeological remains, it is recommended that no further mitigation of the archaeological features is required. In the event that no more work is required, publication of the evaluation findings will be carried out through a short summary of the fieldwork submitted to the local fieldwork roundup. An OASIS form has also been completed and an electronic copy of the evaluation report will be deposited with the Archaeological Data Service (ADS). The site archive will be prepared in accordance with local and national guidance and will be deposited with Shropshire Museums Service.
