Open area excavation on land off Seagrave Road in Sileby revealed a small early–middle Iron Age enclosure, defined by a substantial ditch. Although the enclosure contained a possible roundhouse, the quantity of finds recovered was small, suggesting that the site was associated with seasonal or short-term occupation. The enclosure was situated next to an extensive boundary which, by the Roman period, was used as a trackway. It continued northwards for at least 450m, forming an integral part of an unexcavated Romano-British settlement. The latter appears to have been laid out around another, very similar early–middle Iron Age enclosure.The excavation archive is held by Leicestershire County Council Museum Services under accession number X.A145.2011. | ||
