Abstract:
An archaeological watching brief was carried out at Hall Farm, Brentingby, Leicestershire (SK 784 188) by University of Leicester Archaeological Services (ULAS) on 14th September 2011. The work was carried out on behalf of ACORUS and J Hawley and Sons in advance of groundwork for the extension of an existing slurry lagoon to the west of the 17th century Hall. The work involved supervision and inspection of topsoil removal and ground reduction by mechanical excavator for any indication of archaeological activity. Across much of the development area, around the existing lagoon, only natural boulder clay was uncovered. This may be because the area has been artificially terraced when the original lagoon was put in. However, to the east of the lagoon, the remains of a stone wall and cobble path were found beneath a layer of building rubble. These are most likely post-medieval garden features associated with the Hall. They appeared to have been demolished in the 17th or 18th century. The site archive will be held by Leicestershire County Council under the accession number X.A126.2011.
