Abstract: |
An archaeological trial-trench evaluation was carried out on land at 61 Main Street, Cosby, Leicestershire (SP 454721 294852) by University of Leicester Archaeological Services (ULAS) from 22nd to 30th May 2014. The work was carried out on behalf of Westleigh Developments Ltd in advance of the proposed redevelopment of the site. Ten trenches, totalling 335.2 square metres were excavated across the site. Overall, the result of the trial-trenching revealed truncation and demolition across the site, apart from a small number of possible medieval linear features in Trench 8 and a stone wall and surface of possible late 19th century date in Trench 3. No preserved topsoil or subsoil (except in trench 8) was noted across the site. The site archive will be held by Leicestershire County Council Museum Services under the accession number X.A79.2014. |
