Abstract:		 Archaeological landscape survey and desk-based assessment undertaken at Stoneywell Cottage and Rocky Field provided baseline data to contribute to the understanding of the archaeological resource at the site, and to facilitate future conservation management and research. Stoneywell Cottage is an exceptional example of the Arts and Crafts architectural movement, designed by Ernest Gimson, and is in a very good state of preservation. The cottage is set within grounds designed to complement the harmonious appearance of the house. Only one archaeological feature pre-dating the construction of the cottage was identified within this area, in addition to early 19th-century Parliamentary Enclosure walls retained within the later cottage grounds. The earlier feature comprised a small standing stone which appears to be a parish or township boundary marker. Garden features include walled gardens, pathways, a pump house and pond, and a small tower created as a play-fort. The cottage grounds are divided from Stoneywell Wood by a bank and ditch, likely to be a medieval or early post-medieval boundary. Rocky Field was created in the early 19th century as part of the enclosure of the wastes and commons of Charnwood Forest, and its boundaries preserve the parliamentary enclosure landscape. The nature, condition and significance of identified archaeological features has been described, and documentary research was undertaken to understand the landscape and enclosure history of the survey area. The report also includes recommendations for conservation management and further research.
