Abstract: |
An archaeological evaluation by trial trenching was undertaken of land between 218 and 224 Bradgate Road, Anstey, Leicestershire (5409 0895) by the University of Leicester Archaeological Services (ULAS) on behalf of Mrs. E. V. Palmer, in advance of possible residential development of the site. The site was occupied by dense vegetation, which caused the site to be largely inaccessible. Two trenches were excavated during the evaluation, totalling 35m in length. An area of undated cobbles was revealed within both trenches. It is unclear if these represent the remains of a trackway or yard surface. The area had been subject to some modern disturbance, an air raid shelter being formerly situated on the site. No significant finds were recovered from the evaluation. The site archive will be deposited with Leicestershire Museums, Arts and Records Service Accession No. X.A 83. 2003. |
