Abstract:		 An archaeological evaluation was undertaken at the former Lonsdale House, Oakham, Rutland (NGR SK 85419 09323). It was undertaken on behalf of CgMs Consulting, whose client intends to redevelop the site for residential purposes. A planning application has been submitted for this development. A desk-based assessment of the site was prepared which identified the potential for the survival of significant features from the Prehistoric and Roman eras, with less potential from the Saxon era. A potential for features with low significance of an agricultural nature was suggested for the medieval and Post-medieval eras. The site lies on the northern side of Barleythorpe Road to the north-west of the historic centre of Oakham. It comprises the grounds of the former Lonsdale House and associated outbuildings, built after 1886. Three trenches were excavated to the natural substrate. The trenches contained evidence of ploughed out ridge and furrow, a field boundary ditch and structures and features relating to Lonsdale House and its outbuildings, but no archaeological features pre-dating the Medieval period were identified.
