Abstract:		 A programme of archaeological work was undertaken at Littleover, Derby, on land adjacent to the site of the former Post House Hotel, in advance of development. A desk-based assessment and geophysical survey was followed by an archaeological evaluation. An area was then targeted for excavation, together with a watching brief maintained during development groundworks. The earliest excavated features was the cremation of a juvenile, contained within a Cordoned Urn of later Early Bronze Age date. Further cremations, possibly of this date, were recorded but not excavated. Also recorded was a line of pits, tentatively interpreted as part of a pit alignment. A length of Roman road, Ryknield Street, surfaced with gravel and flanked by drainage ditches, was also recorded. Separately authored contributions include
