Abstract:		 University of Leicester Archaeological Services (ULAS) carried out an archaeological evaluation by trial trenching on land off Croft Road, Cosby, Leicestershire, from the 9th - 24th March 2016. The work was undertaken for Jelsons as part of an archaeological impact assessment in advance of a residential development. Following a desk-based assessment identifying cropmarks, and a geophysical survey, the evaluation involved the excavation of 34 trenches in total to sample the proposed development area and target potential anomalies. Evidence of pits, ditches and a possible track way were uncovered ranging from prehistoric to Roman date and a putative sunken-featured building of probably early-Saxon date along with undated agricultural field drains and traces of medieval ridge and furrow. The archive will be held by Leicestershire County Council Museum Service under accession number X36-2016.
