Abstract:		 In October 2010, an archaeological trial trench evaluation was carried out by Northamptonshire Archaeology on land adjacent to Sketchley Brook, Hinckley, Leicestershire. The evaluation was carried out in response to the submission of a planning application for the development of the land for retail and residential use. The evaluation revealed a prehistoric pit and an undated gully, five boundary ditches identified during a geophysical survey, a probable post-medieval field boundary ditch and pit, a brick-supported culvert, the corner foundations of a brick field barn and part of a possible 19th or 20th-century hearth. The ground had been disturbed in recent times, with the laying of a gas pipe and the raising of ground level during the construction of factory buildings. Pottery recovered from the over burden and furrows ranged in date from Roman to 20th century and was similar to that collected during a previous fieldwalking survey.
