Abstract:		 Northamptonshire Archaeology was commissioned by Leicestershire County Council to undertake an archaeological trial trench evaluation on land adjacent to the A6 and north of Longsdale School, Birstall, Leicestershire. Twenty-four trial trenches were targeted on results obtained through previous fieldwalking and geophysical surveys. The excavation revealed archaeological features in seven trenches. These comprised four undated sections of two linear features, two Iron Age pits, two post-medieval field boundary ditches, and Iron Age pottery introduced into the colluvial layer through bioturbation. A small surface scatter of worked flint was recovered from the north-western corner of the proposed development area. Only an east to west running boundary ditch corresponded with the geophysical survey results.
