Abstract:		 An Archaeological Watching brief during groundworks at 24 Peacock Lane, Leicester was undertaken by ULAS on behalf of Askam Construction Limited. Prior archaeological evaluation inside the former building on the site had established that archaeological deposits survived beneath basement floor levels. The ground beams and floor slab of the new building were subsequently designed to sit above the level of significant archaeological deposits and would be supported by a grid of augered piles. Before piling, the former basement was backfilled with crushed concrete and brick rubble. Most of the piles were located along the lines of the pre-existing foundations of the previous building. Possible Roman levels were briefly observed in exposed sections below the basement floor finishes (60m OD) as the old foundations were removed. Attendance at the site occurred on the 29th and 30th September 2010. The archive will be deposited with Leicester City Council Museums Service subject to confirmation. Accession code A7.2010
