Abstract:		 In March 2013 Archaeological Solutions Limited (AS) carried out an archaeological trial trench evaluation on land at Overstone House, 112 Kettering Road, Leicestershire (NGR SP 7485 8660; Figs. 1-2). The evaluation was commissioned by DLA Planning Ltd on behalf of the Owners of Overstone House and undertaken in compliance with a planning condition attached to outline planning approval. It is proposed to demolish the existing building and erect 50 dwellings, create the provision of public open space and construction of new access (Planning Ref. 12/00806/OUT). The site is situated on the slope of a clay ridge overlooking the River Jordan. Archaeological investigations close by have recorded evidence for an extensive Roman enclosure system, including two inhumation burials and pits containing domestic waste. Also revealed during these earlier excavations were a potential prehistoric pit alignment, isolated Anglo-Saxon pits and medieval ridge and furrow. Much of the land surrounding Market Harborough has been agricultural since the medieval period. In the event the evaluation revealed traces of ridge and furrow cultivation generally in the southern half of the site (Trenches 10-11, 13-14, 16-18 and 20-22) and a residual struck flint from modern Made Ground L1001. The struck flint is a backed knife of earlier Neolithic date.
