Abstract: |
An archaeological field evaluation by trial trenching was carried out by University of Leicester Archaeological Services (ULAS) on land at Rogues Lane, Cottesmore, Rutland (SK 9054 1392). The work was in advance of the proposed development of the site for new housing. Thirteen trenches were excavated targeting the proposed house plots and access road. A series of features were identified, in both the western and eastern areas of site. The features included ditches, gullies, pits and a post-hole. Pottery and other material, including a kiln bar and a glass bead, of early Roman date were recovered from the features. The evidence indicates domestic and perhaps industrial activity in the mid-1st to 2nd century AD. Some residual flint was also recovered from the features and unstratified from the ploughsoil. |
