Abstract:		 An Archaeological watching brief was undertaken at Sites 3 and 4a on the Rolleston Estate, Leicestershire as part of the Stonton Catchment Water Friendly Farming Project. The work was undertaken as part of a planning condition. A total of seventeen ponds ranging in depth from 0.6m-1m deep were excavated within the two sites intermittently from 31st January 2014. At Site 3 a colluvium subsoil produced an assemblage of abraded late Roman pottery, tile, animal bone and worked stone, the assemblage was indicative of nearby domestic activity. Its deposition is likely due to hill wash from possible settlement sites identified on the eastern and northern valley slopes beyond the perimeter of the investigation area. A small assemblage of late medieval and post-medieval pottery was found within the topsoil. No evidence for archaeological activity was found at Site 4a.
