Abstract:		 An archaeological evaluation was carried out at Hall Farm, Main Street, Gumley, Leicestershire (SP 6812 9008) by University of Leicester Archaeological Services (ULAS) on 2nd February 2012. The work was carried out on behalf of Viscount Onslow in advance of the construction of four new dwellings, associated access road and landscaping. The work involved supervision and inspection of three machine-dug trenches and test-pits for any indication of archaeological activity and to verify the depth of made ground in the area. The investigation found that the northern, southern and eastern sides of the site (beneath Plots 2 and 4) were formed from made ground of considerable depth (over 1.5m) containing 19th century brick and concrete rubble. In the centre of the site, beneath Plot 3, a wall footing and concrete floor were found resting on natural clay beneath c.1.3m of made ground. These appear to match the alignment and location of a long, narrow building present on an enclosure map dated to 1773 but no longer extant by the time the 1st edition Ordnance Survey map was published in 1886. The site archive will be held by Leicestershire County Council under the accession number X.A12.2012.
