Abstract:
An archaeological watching brief was carried out by University of Leicester Archaeological Services (ULAS) during ground-works at 8, Main Road, Twycross, Leicestershire (SK 337 050). The watching brief is required as a condition of the planning consent for the erection of a new extension and alterations to the existing building at the above address (Planning App. No. 11/00832/FUL). The site lies within the medieval historic core of the village and in close proximity to a moated manorial site). Previous archaeological fieldwork undertaken by ULAS on land to the rear of 17-19 Church Street, revealed medieval deposits thought to be associated with the manorial site. The site also lies close to an area of high Roman activity and therefore there may also be potential for archaeological remains from the Roman period. The site was visited by an archaeologist on 3rd April 2013 and foundation trenches associated with the construction of the new extension were observed. The soil sequence was very uniform across the site and undisturbed. No archaeological features were observed during the watching brief and no archaeological artefacts were retrieved during the work. The archive for this project will be deposited with Leicestershire Museums with accession number X.A39.2013.
