Abstract: |
An archaeological watching brief was undertaken during groundworks for a new link pathway at Leicester Castle between the castle yard and the motte (NGR: SK 5824 0416). The Castle and surrounding area are a Scheduled Monument No: SM 17127, HA 1012147 and therefore consent for the work was required from English Heritage (SMC ref: S00056186). The work involved the excavation of a trench for a new wall footing and several post holes to the rear of No.5 Castle View. No archaeological deposits were disturbed by the groundworks, however, it did help to confirm the depth of such deposits to help inform any future work. Artefacts related to post-medieval/modern activity were recovered from garden soils. The archive will be held by Leicester City Council under the Accession Number A10 2013. |
