Abstract:		 An archaeological field evaluation was carried out by University of Leicester Archaeological Services (ULAS) on land at Boyer's Orchard, Harby, Leicestershire (SK 749 313). The work was commissioned by Howard Coy in advance of the proposed development of the land for new housing. The site is currently pasture fields. The site lies within an area of significant archaeological interest. It is situated within the medieval settlement core of Harby and close to known Iron Age, Roman and Anglo-Saxon remains. A total of 18 trenches were excavated across three fields. All were negative for archaeological features. Four trenches contained deep made-up ground, possibly in-filled ponds, one of which can be identified on early OS maps of the area. Other trenches contained concrete and a modern brick floor, suggesting that farm buildings were once situated here. Early OS maps show a small building on the southern part of the site. The archive for the site will be deposited with Leicestershire Museums with accession number X.A40.2016.
