Abstract:		 An archaeological evaluation was undertaken by ULAS on behalf of Mr PJ Sherwin on land Billington Rough, Elmesthorpe, Leicestershire (SP 4595 9575) prior to redevelopment. The site is of known archaeological significance, located in the bounds of Billington Rough, a well-documented medieval/post-medieval pond. Also there are other prehistoric and Roman sites in the vicinity. Six trenches were machine excavated within the development area. However no clearly significant archaeological features were present. It is likely that land-use has prevented the build-up or survival of organic deposits associated with pond silting. The likely course of the original steam was observed along with some evidence of medieval ridge and furrow.
