Abstract: |
An archaeological strip, map and sample excavation and watching brief was undertaken in October 2015 by University of Leicester Archaeological Services on behalf of Colmar Construction on land at 24A Britannia Road, Burbage, Leicestershire. The fieldwork was undertaken in order to mitigate the impact on the localised remains of a residential development and associated access road. The archaeological strip, plan and sample excavation and watching brief revealed archaeological evidence in the form of ditches, a gully and post-hole. Previous archaeological fieldwork undertaken immediately south of the present development revealed evidence for ditched Romano-British field systems, and it is possible that the two undated ditches identified in the present excavation formed part of the same network. |
