Abstract: |
An archaeological evaluation by trial trenching was undertaken in December 2008 by the University of Leicester Archaeological Services in response to a request by Leicestershire County Council Heritage Services, as archaeological advisors to the Hinckley and Bosworth District Council planning authority. This followed the undertaking of a desk-based assessment which indicated the possibility of encountering medieval remains and in advance of a proposed residential development at The Rectory, 2 Shadows Lane, Congerstone. The opening of two archaeological evaluation trenches indicated the presence of two linear features which are likely to represent gullies or ditches demarcating agricultural or residential property divisions The retrieval of pottery from one of these features provided a probable mid or later seventeenth-century date. |
