Abstract: |
Northamptonshire Archaeology was commissioned to carry out a detailed magnetometer survey of a proposed development site at Earl Shilton, Leicestershire. The survey mapped extensive areas of ridge and furrow, and identified some other features of possible, but unproven, archaeological significance. During the course of the survey, a polished 'Langdale' axe, of Neolithic date, was discovered. |
