Abstract:		 University of Leicester Archaeological Services carried out an archaeological trial trench evaluation at Strancliffe Hall, Barrow upon Soar (SK 57250 18150) between the 2nd and 12th August 2011. The work was undertaken as a pre-application requirement in advance of a proposed residential development at the site. Previous geophysical survey had highlighted the potential for archaeological features to be present within the site. The evaluation forms part of an archaeological impact assessment of the proposed development. A total of four trenches was excavated in order to target the possible features previously identified by the geophysical survey, as well as to evaluate apparently 'archaeologically unknown' areas of the site. Trench 3 recorded evidence of pitting and a pair of parallel gullies that all produced modern pottery, suggesting that they may relate to the landscaping of Strancliffe Hall during the Victorian period. Trench 4 revealed evidence of three lime kilns as well as suggesting that the area had been previously utilized for clay extraction. No dating for this activity was recovered, but the kilns are likely to date to between the 16th and 17th centuries based on comparative studies. The site archive will be held by Leicestershire County Council Heritage Services Section, accession number XA.78.2011.
