Abstract:		 A contour survey was undertaken on the Newhall Burnt Mound (SMR 20795, centred on NGR SP 1328 9463) on 30th June 2007 as part of the voluntary Helping Hands Project run by members of the congregation of the Church of the Latter Day Saints. The project was commissioned by Birmingham City Council. The survey revealed that the mound was very well preserved (measuring 12.5m X 9.5m) and survived to a height of 0.56m above the surrounding floodplain of the Plants Brook. The waterlogged nature of the site means that there is great potential for the survival of important environmental remains and ecological indicators such as pollen, charred plant, beetles and charcoal to survive on or in the vicinity of the site. Its location on the floodplain has meant that there has been little plough activity on the site and there is therefore also good potential for the survival of associated features around the monument. Due to the fragility of the remains, as well as their importance to the overall understanding of man''s effects on the environment of Newhall Valley, it has been recommended that the site be kept in its current waterlogged condition and that tree planting and vehicle access be prohibited in the area in order to maintain the monuments good condition.
