Abstract:
University of Leicester Archaeological Services were commissioned by Fisher German to undertake an archaeological evaluation of land off Leicester Road, Hinckley, Leicestershire in advance of the construction of residential units. The proposed development area had been identified as being an area of archaeological potential. Three evaluation trenches were excavated within the proposed development area in order to sample anomalies identified by a previous geophysical survey and to ascertain the likely extent of any potential archaeological remains. The geophysical anomaly in Trench 1 proved to be a modern animal burial while no trace was found for the linear anomaly in Trench 3. Only limited evidence of potential archaeological remains were uncovered, limited to a single trench (Trench 2), none of which were dateable. Significant colluvial deposits were observed within the easternmost trench. The archive for the archaeological work will be held by Leicestershire County Council, under the museums accession number X.A116.2010.
