Abstract:		 An archaeological field evaluation was undertaken on land north of Ashby Road, Ibstock, Leicestershire (SK 401 107) by the University of Leicester Archaeological Services (ULAS) between the 7th and the 12th of April 2010. Previous preliminary fieldwalking and geophysical results had suggested a limited amount of archaeological potential, therefore a programme of trial trenching was requested by the Planning Archaeologist at Leicestershire County Council. Twenty-two 20m long trenches were excavated within the area of the proposed development, targeting the fieldwalking and geophysical results. The evaluation produced limited evidence for archaeological activity. On the frontage of Ashby Road, a series of linear features running east-west, parallel to the current roadline were identified, one of which produced modern pottery and building materials. Several other undated features were recorded across the proposed development area. A pair of ephemeral linear features, and a layer of gravel and granite (probably ground consolidation) were exposed near to Melbourne Road, and two post-holes were identified in the west of site, one with evidence of burning. No other archaeological features or deposits were observed within any of the other trenches, and very few artefacts were recovered, although land drains and plough furrows were recorded. The archive will be deposited with Leicestershire County Museums Service under accession number XA5 2010.
