Abstract: |
An archaeological evaluation and excavation was undertaken at 19 St. Mary's Court, Barwell, Leicestershire (SP 422 964) by ULAS in February and March 2006. The work was commissioned by Tony Morris Builders Ltd. The archaeological work revealed evidence for prehistoric settlement consisting of a number of postholes forming part of a roundhouse. Roman settlement activity is also suggested by the presence of a number of finds including tile. Two linear features were also excavated that may represent boundary ditches of medieval date for dwellings outside of the excavation area, or drainage features associated with occupational or land use. Additionally a large irregular feature was excavated that could be associated with the medieval fishponds that are present to the south and east. The site archive will be held by the Historic and Natural Environment Team, Leicestershire County Council, under the Accession Number XA20 2006. |
