Abstract The abstract describing the content of the publication or report Abstract:	An archaeological strip, plan and sample excavation was carried out at 7 Leicester Road, Billesdon, Leicestershire (SK 7180 0287) by University of Leicester Archaeological Services (ULAS) on 1 October 2013. The work was carried out in advance of construction of a new dwelling and detached garage (Plot A) and as part of a pre-planning inquiry for a second dwelling (Plot B). Work involved supervision and inspection of machine removed overburden over the unexcavated footprint of the proposed building. No archaeological features, deposits or finds were observed during the course of the work and the result of the investigation proved negative. Across Plot A the ground appeared to have been extensively disturbed by tree-roots and related garden activity associated with recent occupation of 7 Leicester Road. Ground across Plot B was less disturbed but the investigation only produced evidence of the sites former use as farmland (plough scars and a field drain). The site archive will be held by Leicestershire County Council Museum Services under the accession number X.A157.2013.
