Abstract:		 An archaeological watching brief was carried out by University of Leicester Archaeological Services (ULAS) during ground-works at 10 Market Place, Shepshed, Leicestershire (SK 47990 19787). The site lies within the medieval core of the town and is close to several historic buildings. The land was occupied by terraced house prior to being a car park. The archaeological work consisted of monitoring of the excavation of foundation trenches associated with the erection of two new dwellings. The sequence observed in the sections of the trenches mainly consisted of made-up ground, over silty sand and gravel, probably alluvium on most of the site and garden soil over red clay at the ront of the site close to the street frontage. A small row of granite setts were observed in section and in the spoil at the rear of the site. No archaeological features or artefacts were discovered during the watching brief and no trace of previous buildings was observed. The setts were probably from the yards of the terraced buildings which once occupied the site. The archive will be deposited with Leicestershire Museums Service with accession number X.A30.2013.
