Abstract: |
An archaeological field evaluation was undertaken at Manor Holt, Mountsorrel, Leicestershire by the University of Leicester Archaeological Services (ULAS) between the 24th and 26th of January 2012. Planning permission has been granted for residential development with associated landscaping and access road. Due to the location within an area of archaeological interest, the Planning Authority have requested that a programme of trial trenching take place to identify and locate any archaeological remains that may be affected by the development. Ten 20m long by 1.6m wide trench were excavated across the proposed development site, most targeting anomalies highlighted in a geophysical survey. No archaeological features or deposits were observed within the trenches. The anomalies were identified during the evaluation as geological differences in the natural substrata. |
