Abstract:		 In May 2012 Archaeological Research Services Ltd were commissioned by Julian Middleton of Freeth Cartwright LLP to undertake an Archaeological Building Recording and Watching Brief at Oak House, Main Street, Illston on the Hill, Leicestershire prior to the proposed development of the site which will involve the erection of an extension to the rear and dormer windows to the front. The archaeological building recording established that the original Oak House may have developed around the 18th century as indicated by few vestiges including timber beams and a salting trough. The main range of two and a half storeys may date to the late 18th or early 19th century based on architectural stylistic grounds. The lean-to range appears to be contemporary with the main range which would have incorporated part of earlier structures. Later minor modern additions included the current north-western extension. The photographic survey provides a full and proper record prior to future alterations of the building. The groundworks revealed no deposits or structures of archaeological significance except for the remains of a disused brick well which probably dates to the 19th century.
