Abstract: |
Five trial trenches, totalling 122m2, were excavated in the grounds of The Vicarage St. Mary's Road, Hinckley, Leicestershire (NGR SP 4276 9376) in order to establish the presence or absence, nature and extent of any archaeological features. Four of the trenches produced positive evidence for archaeology in the form of ditches and a possible channel or pond. The features were generally well defined but no closely dateable finds were recovered and their date is therefore tentative. However, they clearly pre-date the use of the land as gardens and are likely to be medieval or post-medieval, possibly related to fishponds associated with the former priory. The archive will be held by Leicestershire County Council under the Accession Code X.A36 2012. |
