Abstract: |
Wessex Archaeology was commissioned by Severn Trent Water to prepare an Archaeological Desk-based Assessment of the area surrounding the settlement at Kirby Bellars, Leicestershire centred on National Grid Reference 472025, 317634. The aims of this study were to assess the known and potential heritage resource within the site and the surrounding area, and to assess the likely impacts on this resource of a proposed new foul sewage pipeline by considering three options for its route. This assessment has established that there is an archaeological interest within the Scheme due to the presence of upstanding earthwork remains, including those now Scheduled, and from previous archaeological investigations. This is defined as the potential for the presence of above ground and buried archaeological remains, in particular relating to potential a Romano-British settlement site, potential Anglo-Saxon remains, the earthwork remains of the historic core of Kirby Bellars, from both the medieval and post-medieval periods and other currently undefined earthworks. |
