Abstract:
University of Leicester Archaeological Services carried out an archaeological evaluation by trial trenching on land north of Waterfield Place, Market Harborough (SP 735883) between the 30th May and 6th June 2011. Positive results were recorded within seven of the excavated trenches that confirmed the results of the geophysical survey as well as recording archaeological features not previously indentified. Six enclosure ditches were investigated that broadly spread east to west across the site that all These features varied in form but all produced pottery dating between the Middle to Late Iron Age (4th century BC to the middle 1st century AD). The ditches recorded within Trenches 2, 6, 7 and nine appeared to represent single cut features whereas the ditches in Trenches 3 and 8 exhibited an apparently long tradition of re-cutting. Trench 5 and 7 recorded structural features potentially representing the remains of roundhouses within the recorded enclosures. A further possible roundhouse structure was also recorded within Trench 6 that may also relate to phase of unenclosed settlement on the site. Evidence of structural deposition was recorded within Trench 5 where to complete miniature pottery vessels were stood upright within a gully terminus.
