Abstract: |
An archaeological field evaluation was carried out by ULAS for Leicestershire County Council, Property Services at The Belvoir High School, Barkestone Lane, Bottesford, Leicestershire (SP 802 383) in advance of the development of new buildings and a car park. The site lies in an area that has moderate potential for archaeological remains to be uncovered from the Iron Age and Romano-British period. Two trenches were placed on the playing fields to the south of the main school buildings along the footprints of the new development. No archaeological remains were found within the trenches. Two sherds of 13th-14th century medieval pottery were found in the topsoil of trench 2. The archive for the site will be deposited with Leicestershire Historic and Natural Environment Team with accession number X.A59.2008. |
