Abstract: |
University of Leicester Archaeological Services were commissioned by Mr E. Sykes to undertake an archaeological strip, plan and record of land at Grange Park, Blaby Road, Enderby, Leicestershire, where outline planning permission has been granted for the development of the area as a residential caravan park. The proposed development area had been identified as being of possible archaeological significance. Initially four trenches were excavated within the areas of proposed groundworks in order to ascertain the likely extent of any potential earthfast archaeological remains. If any remains had been encountered there the trench would then be extended to fully exposed these remains or to the full extent of the buildings footprint. A proposed fifth trench was not opened as the ground level had clearly been raised by c. 1metre. The initial strip totalled an area of approximately 42metres square and uncovered nothing of archaeological significance. This area was recorded and no further work was carried out. There was clear evidence of extensive groundworks having already been carried out. The archive for the archaeological work will be held by Leicestershire County Council, under the accession number X.A194.2009. |
