Abstract:		 An archaeological watching brief was undertaken on behalf of Chase Home at New Shipton Farm, Walmley, Sutton Coldfield, Birmingham, (NGR ref SP 1348 9423; SMR ref BSMR 01680). The watching brief confirmed the results of a prior evaluation, suggesting that the area around the extant 18th and 19th century farm buildings had been subject to considerable modern alteration and truncation, and that a extensive phase, involving the raising of the ground level with brick rubble, had taken place within the recent past. An area of potential archaeological remains were found to the south-east of the farmhouse, these included two ditches running parallel with a cobbled surface in-between. This cobble surface overlay a number of small ephemeral features interpreted as either pits, post-holes or short gullies, although all these features yielded no datable finds, they imply an agricultural usage that may have dated from the late medieval/early post-medieval period purely on stratigraphic rather than artefactual evidence. No features from any earlier periods were identified.
