An archaeological watching brief on excavations associated with the construction of five wind turbines and associated infrastructure was undertaken on land off Blidworth Lane, Lindhurst, Mansfield, Nottinghamshire. Archaeological monitoring was undertaken over approximately 0.5 hectares divided between seven areas across the site. The aim of the watching brief was to preserve through record the presence/absence, date, nature, and extent of any buried archaeological remains and features. Historical analysis of the area indicated the possibility of Roman and Prehistoric activity in the vicinity of the site, however, no archaeological materials relating to these periods were recovered and intensive ploughing of the area made it unlikely that any shallow archaeological features would survive. A large number of features were identified across the monitored areas thought to relate to former tree cover. These features were heavily truncated, although it was observed that they may not have been pulled down but felled in such a way to leave the roots to rot in place. This could constitute evidence for woodland management consistent with the area's inclusion within Sherwood Forest during the medieval period.
