Abstract: |
In 2008, Northamptonshire Archaeology was commissioned by CgMs Consulting to conduct a magnetometer survey across a proposed development site south of Melton Mowbray, Leicestershire. Approximately 54ha were surveyed, revealing two settlement sites of probable Iron Age to Roman date, along with medieval ridge and furrow and some lesser features of possible archaeological interest. In 2015 MOLA Northampton, the successor organisation to Northamptonshire Archaeology, was commissioned by CgMs Consulting to survey additional areas of land, largely contiguous to the original survey area. This second phase of work mapped a continuation of one of the settlement sites, as well as detecting further ridge and furrow and other minor features. |
