Abstract:
An archaeological evaluation of land to the east of the Red Lion Public House, off Cossington Lane, Rothley, Leicestershire was commissioned by Fairclough Homes. The work was undertaken by Birmingham Archaeology in March 2004. Four trenches were excavated to locate and identify any archaeological remains that could be affected by the development. A small collection of struck flint was recovered from the plough horizon at the southern end of the site, suggesting at least some level of prehistoric activity in the area. A possible curvilinear gully was identified in the vicinity of the flint collection. The evaluation also identified a single linear feature parallel to Cossington Lane at the southern end of the site, and a series of linear features on the same alignment further to the northwest. These linear features were on the same alignment as the remnants of possible medieval strip fields previously identified in a desk-based assessment. No dating evidence, however, was recovered from any of these features, or from the earlier ploughsoil horizon identified underlying the topsoil across the whole of the site.
