Headland Archaeology (UK) Ltd undertook archaeological monitoring of topsoil stripping associated with the construction of a single wind turbine on land at Manystones Lane, Braddington, Derbyshire, in response to a condition placed on planning consent. The archaeological monitoring revealed a thin layer of topsoil covering natural background geology, which consists of orange sands and gravels, punctuated by the occasional limestone outcrop. A single feature was recorded during the monitoring and was interpreted as a quarry face targeting a natural limestone outcrop. A single 20th century glass milk bottle was recovered from the primary fill of this feature.
