Abstract: |
An archaeological field evaluation by trial trenching was carried out at the allotments, Main Street, Stanton under Bardon, Leicestershire (SK 467 103) in advance of the redevelopment of the site for new housing. This was the second phase of archaeological work on the site. A previous evaluation was undertaken on the allotments and the pasture to the south-east, which will be used as the replacement allotments. The previous evaluation of eight trenches was negative for archaeological work. However, as the allotments were still in use at the time of the first evaluation, only four trenches were placed across the proposed development area. The new phase of work involved the excavation of a further 11 trenches, across the site. The new evaluation was also largely negative for archaeological features; all but one of the trenches showing no evidence of archaeological deposits. A single narrow linear feature, most likely an enclosure ditch was identified in Trench 09. There was no dating evidence for this feature. The archive for this phase of the work will be deposited with Leicestershire Museums with accession number X.A49.2013. |
