Abstract:		 In March 2006, Archaeological Solutions Limited (AS) conducted an archaeological evaluation of land at 62-64 Churchgate, Leicester (NGR SK 5864 0482). The evaluation was commissioned by Apt Design Ltd on behalf of Fara Estates in response to a requirement of Leicester City Council for an archaeological evaluation. It followed a programme of historic building recording carried out by Hertfordshire Archaeological Trust (now Archaeological Solutions Ltd) in August 2001 (Prosser 2001). Since Roman times Leicester has been a pre-eminent regional settlement. The proposed development site lies outside the Roman city and the medieval town, just beyond the line of the city walls, laid out in the 3rd century AD and almost certainly overlying the outer ditches of the town defences and within the extra-mural suburb of Churchgate. The archaeological evaluation at 62-64 Churchgate, Leicester, revealed well stratified sequence of deposits (L1001-L1003) at the south-west end of Trench 1 and evidence for a large cut feature (F1027, L1018, L1015) which is likely to be one of the town defensive ditches, truncated by two later ditches/re-cuts on the same alignment (F1011 and F1014), at the north-eastern end of the trench. The centre of the trench was heavily truncated by 19th century cellaring.
