Abstract: |
An archaeological field evaluation by trial trenching was undertaken on land adjacent, Stoney Bridge, Broughton Astley, Leicestershire by University of Leicester Archaeological Services in advance of proposed construction of anaerobic digestion plant and associated landscaping and access road. Fifteen trial trenches were excavated in an area defined as having potential as it lies in an area of archaeological interest. The trial trenching revealed areas of archaeological potential including a shallow pit containing Mesolithic flints. Other features including possible post-holes, gullies and pits were found under a deep colluvial deposit. The site archive will be held Leicestershire Museums Service under accession number X.A183.2009 |
