Abstract: |
Northamptonshire Archaeology (NA) was commissioned by Under Construction Archaeology, to conduct geophysical surveys as part of an archaeological evaluation adjacent to Sketchley Brook, Burbage, Hinckley, Leicestershire. Three fields were successfully surveyed by gradiometer, revealing a former landscape of enclosed ridge and furrow fields in the large western field. A small group of ditches and a pit detected may constitute evidence of earlier archaeology in that area. To the east a recreation ground was prospected revealing many modern features, but the survey also identified the likely route of the underground channelling of the Sketchley Brook to the north-east. |
