Abstract:		 Archaeological Research Services Ltd (ARS Ltd) was commissioned by Sun and Soil Renewable 20 Limited to undertake an archaeological evaluation at Woodhouse Fields Farm, Nabb Lane, Rocester, Staffordshire between the 22nd - 26th August 2016 in accordance with a Written Scheme of Investigation approved by the Staffordshire County Council Principal Archaeologist. The archaeological evaluation relates to the proposed development of land at Woodhouse Fields Farm, which consists of the construction of a solar farm and associated trackway and building, and also a temporary construction laydown area. In total, eight evaluation trenches were excavated under archaeological supervision, using a tracked excavator with a toothless ditching bucket. Removal of the topsoil and silty clay subsoil revealed the natural clay of the region. Two linear features were identified within trenches 1 and 4, potentially representing former field boundaries, and the remains of two filled-in ponds were also identified within trenches 2 and 3. Artefacts recovered from F104 and F404 were dated to the 19th-20th centuries, as were the artefacts recovered from one of the filled-in ponds (204). No other archaeological features or artefacts were recovered.
