A scheme of archaeological monitoring and recording was carried out during initial development groundworks associated with the construction of a new wind turbine on land at Rufford Forest Farm, in the parish of Rainworth in the Newark and Sherwood district of Nottinghamshire. The turbine site is partially located within a field which contains a complex of cropmarks identified by the National Mapping Programme: these cropmarks have not been dated, but are considered most likely to represent Iron Age to Roman field boundaries, trackways and enclosures. Two features were recorded during the monitoring programme: a small pit and another feature that was seen only in section, probably a second pit. Neither feature could be dated, and may have had a single short-term use, such as sand extraction.
