Abstract:
In August 2009, an archaeological evaluation was undertaken by Northamptonshire Archaeology on behalf of CgMs Consulting on land at Dishley Grange, Loughborough, Leicestershire. Twenty-four trenches each 50m long, and two areas, one 30m by 15m and the other 30m by 5m, were excavated. In Trench 26, to the east, there was an isolated urned cremation burial, which has been radiocarbon dated to the early-middle Bronze Age. Archaeological features, dating to the late Iron Age/Roman period, were concentrated within a group of fourteen trenches in the northern part of the area. Pottery suggests that occupation perhaps began in the mid 1st century AD and continued through the 2nd century. Although there is some later pottery it was not found in very large quantities, perhaps suggesting that there was a decline of activity after the late 2nd century. The settlement comprised a complex of intercutting enclosure/boundary ditches and related features, probably a small rural, agricultural settlement. Although the geophysical survey had indicated the presence of hearths, kilns or other industrial remains, no such features were found.
