Abstract:		 John Moore Heritage Services carried out an archaeological evaluation in advance of the proposed construction of a new development (Planning Ref: 10/0996/1/OX) on land north of Clickers Way (A47), Elmesthorpe, Leicestershire. 14 trenches, totalling approximately 420 metres in length were excavated to the underlying natural geology or uppermost archaeological horizon. The earliest dated features were three ditches (Trenches 4, 10 and 12) with pottery sherds of the medieval period. A series of undated ditches were located within Trenches 1 and 6 and contained lighter coloured fills, which may have had earlier origin. One ditch in Trench 1 is thought to be Saxon as it is on a similar alignment to a Saxon ditch recorded on the adjacent bypass evaluation. The other dated ditches were post-medieval. A post-medieval ditch was seen crossing the site on an east-west alignment, which can be seen on historic maps from the late 19th Century. This boundary ditch was sampled in three trenches and may have been contemporary with the ditches in Trench 9 of a similar date.
