Abstract:
An archaeological evaluation was undertaken at 136, Cotes Road, Barrow on Soar, Leicestershire (SK 570 185) by ULAS in August 2006. The work was commissioned by Farrell Bass Pritchard. In total eight trial trenches were excavated in order to assess the potential for the survival of archaeological remains that targeted geophysical anomalies and blank areas identified during a magnetometry survey. Each trench contained evidence of limestone quarrying of probable post medieval date that would have removed any earlier deposits. Two post medieval lime kilns were encountered during the evaluation that had been constructed through the earlier quarry backfill. The first was located in the southwest of the proposed development area. It consisted of a horseshoe shaped chamber of burnt reddish clay that opened to the southwest into a working area. The second kiln shared similar characteristics and was located to the northeast of the first with further features located to the northwest and southeast, presumably associated with the production of lime or relating to other industrial processes. Two shallow potential archaeological features of indeterminable function were located in the southwest of the site. In the southeast three features were encountered, one of which may represent a boundary ditch relating to when the land reverted back to agricultural use. The site archive will be held by Leicestershire County Council Museum Services under the Accession Number XA. 100 2006.
