Abstract:
An archaeological field evaluation by trial trenching was undertaken on behalf of Evans Bros. Ltd at 61 Oxford Street, Leicester by University of Leicester Archaeological Services in July 2009. Four trenches were excavated in response to development proposals for student accommodation in an area defined as having archaeological potential, within the Roman and medieval south suburb. The trial trenching revealed a potential Roman road and evidence of pits and spreads suggesting settlement alongside the road. A possible disturbed Roman cremation urn and disarticulated human bone were also recovered from the site. Overlying and cutting the Roman deposits were medieval and post medieval layers and features associated with probable back yard properties that either fronted on to Oxford Street or Grange Lane. The site archive will be held with Leicester City Museum Service, under the accession code A7.2009.
