Abstract: |
In September 2011, an archaeological evaluation, comprising the excavation of fourteen trenches, was undertaken by Cotswold Archaeology at Dragon Lane, Newbold Verdon, Leicestershire. The work was commissioned by Nexus Heritage, acting on behalf of Bloor Homes Ltd (East Midlands Division). The evaluation identified the remains of medieval/post-medieval plough furrows in the southern part of the site, and crossing the centre of the site from north-east to south-west was a ditch that corresponded with a field boundary shown on late 19th and early 20thcentury Ordnance Survey maps of the area. Several large surface depressions in the central and northern part of the field, which corresponded with irregular anomalies shown on a geophysical survey plot of the area, may be of natural origin or associated with mining subsidence. |
