What we are doing
We have previously carried out extensive archaeological mitigation works to the north of Birmingham Road, Coleshill and in March will be returning to carry out a further phase of work on an adjacent site. This work is due to start on Monday 14 March and take around 18 weeks to complete (subject to weather and site conditions). A further phase of work will be carried out later in the year.
A team of archaeologists will be carrying out excavation work on the site. Machinery will be used to remove the topsoil before archaeologists dig by hand and carefully record any findings.
To enable the works a compound area will be set up with welfare facilities and a parking area.
