Abstract: |
This report describes the results of an archaeological trial trench evaluation carried out by Pre-Construct Archaeology on land at Ratcliffe House Farm, Ratcliffe House Lane, Ratcliffe Culey, Leicestershire (NGR SP 33441 99018) between the 14th and the 16th September 2015. The archaeological work was commissioned by CgMs Consulting Ltd on behalf of Lightsource Renewable Energy Ltd in response to a planning condition attached to the erection of a solar farm on the 6.5ha plot of land. The aim of the work was to characterise the archaeological potential of the proposed development area. The evaluation identified a number of post-medieval plough furrows corresponding to the results of a geophysical survey. A late twentieth century back-filled pond was identified in the north-west of the site. No archaeologically significant remains were identified. |
