Abstract: |
University of Leicester Archaeological Services (ULAS) carried out an archaeological evaluation by trial trenching on land off Kinchley Lane, Mountsorrel Quarry, Mountsorrel, Rothely, Leicestershire, on 6th - 12th January 2016. The work was undertaken as part of an archaeological impact assessment in advance of a permitted quarry extension for soil storage/landform creation. Following a desk-based assessment and geophysical survey, the evaluation involved the excavation of 15 trenches to sample the permitted development area. Evidence of undated agricultural field drains and possible evidence for alluvium deposits were identified but no remains or deposits of archaeological significance were possible. The archive will be held by Leicestershire County Council Museum Service under accession number XA4.2016. |
