Abstract The abstract describing the content of the publication or report Abstract:	University of Leicester Archaeological Services (ULAS) carried out an archaeological investigation at Land west of Stanton Road, Sapcote, Leicestershire (SP 489 939) on the 4th February 2015. Previous based assessment indicated that the site contained faint ridge and furrow earthworks as well as later features associated with former granite quarrying activity. A Topographic and Historic Photographic Survey of these heritage assets was undertaken to fulfil a condition of planning permission prior to residential development of the site. The topographic survey recorded faint traces of eroded ridge and furrow on the site and a subsequent LiDAR study was undertaken in order to clarify the results. The survey also recorded evidence of early 20th century quarry workings, including a wagonway and two large spoil heaps. The Historic Building Survey studied an isolated concrete-built shed located to the east of the wagonway. The industrial style building was well-built with stop-chamfered corners. It also appears to be associated with the quarry works and may have served as a possible explosives or detonator store. The date of construction is likely to be in the first half of the 20th century.
