Abstract: |
An archaeological watching brief was carried out at Gilroes Cemetery in Leicester by University of Leicester Archaeological Services in August and September 2011. The site was located on the north-eastern side of the existing cemetery, adjacent to Anstey Lane (SK 56559 06680). No significant archaeological deposits or finds were identified during the course of the work. However, the remains of medieval ridge and furrow agriculture were observed and post-medieval and modern pottery indicates that night soil was spread on the fields. The archive will be held by Leicester City Council under the Accession number A10.2011. |
