Abstract:		 An archaeological evaluation was undertaken at land at St John's, South Lichfield, Staffordshire (NGR SK 411844, 307946). It was commissioned by Persimmon Homes, in advance of a proposed housing development. Planning permission has been granted subject to a programme of archaeological works.The site is located on the southern edge of Lichfield, on agricultural land. Twenty four trenches were excavated across the site, in a rough grid array, and targeting geophysical anomalies. These revealed evidence of low level agricultural activity and clay extraction. The results of the evaluation confirm what was established during the geophysical survey and earlier archaeological evaluation. The site has been part of the agricultural hinterlands of Lichfield, with no evidence of any activity until the later post-medieval period. A number of clay extraction pits in the eastern part of the site are evidence of exploitation of natural resources in the 18th-19th century possibly in relation to the construction of the canal to the north. The archaeological features present are of negligible significance.
