Abstract: |
An archaeological strip, plan and sample excavation was undertaken at The Grange, Main Street, Slawston by the University of Leicester Archaeological Services on the 16th and 17th of March 2011.Under planning application number 10/001464/FUL it was proposed that a tennis court will be constructed within a paddock to the rear of Orchard House. In view of the location within an area of archaeological interest and its proximity to the site of a former chapel a strip, plan and sample excavation was requested by the Senior Planning Archaeologist at Leicestershire County Council, as historic environment advisor to the planning authority. The heavily robbed red-brick and ironstone foundation of the chapel and its boundary wall were located in the south-western corner of the site. Elsewhere the paddock had been landscaped in the recent past resulting in the original subsoil and some of the natural substrate being removed prior to this work. |
