Abstract: |
An archaeological watching brief was undertaken by the University of Leicester Archaeological Services (ULAS) at 31 Swan Street, Seagrave, Leicestershire. The work took place on the 30th January and the 13th February 2012 in advance of the refurbishment of an existing kitchen extension and the construction of a new extension to the side of a Grade II listed 18th- (possibly 17th-) century house. The refurbishment had the potential to expose earlier fabric within the existing house which may have earlier 17th century origins. The development site also lies within the historic core of the medieval and post-medieval village. The existing kitchen extension was stripped and the floor removed to reveal the stone foundations of the south wall of the Grade II listed house with a blocked doorway. The area of the proposed extension to the west of the house had been extensively landscaped prior to the development work which had removed any potential archaeological remains. No archaeological features or deposits were observed during the watching brief. |
