Abstract:
The assessment indicated that the proposed development area was located in the Abbey Meadows, an area known for finds of a number of different periods, though many of these were poorly located. Prehistoric finds included a Neolithic stone axe, human bone and a barbed and tanged arrow head found from just outside the development area. The site may contain archaeological remains given that prehistoric sites had been found in comparable locations adjacent to the river, elsewhere in the Soar valley. [Au(abr)]
