Abstract:
An archaeological evaluation was carried out by ULAS on behalf of Taylor Woodrow Ltd in advance of full planning permission for proposed residential development (planning application No. 06/0189/3). The work took place between 17th and 19th of May 2006 on land to the southwest of Barns Close Kirby Muxloe, Leicestershire. Nine 30m x 1.6m evaluation trenches were excavated in locations targeting the proposed houses and associated services. The proposed development site lies to the west of the historic medieval core of Kirby Muxloe but close to a number of prehistoric and Roman archaeological sites. Prior to development work the land had been used as two private gardens/paddocks with no evidence for recent agricultural or building work. Two shallow post holes and a nearby truncated pit were found in one trench in the southeastern corner of the site along with a small, possible drainage gully running from southeast to northwest. No dateable evidence was recovered from any of these features. A number of modern, heavily silted and blocked, land drains were also noted in a number of the trenches. Records and archive will be deposited with Leicestershire County Council, Heritage Services under accession number XA.61.2006 Introduction The proposed development site is located to the southwest of Barns Close,
