HS2 will be carrying out archaeological test pitting work on land off
Darnford Lane. This work is due to start from Monday 15th March for
around 1 week (subject to weather and site conditions). To accommodate mobilising and demobilising the works, a section of Darnford Lane between Marsh Farm and Ketteridge House will be closed on Monday 15th and Friday 19th March. Traffic will be diverted along Lichfield Road and Ryknild Street. Machinery will be used to remove the topsoil before archaeologists dig by hand and carefully record any findings.
