Abstract:
An archaeological evaluation was carried out by University of Leicester Archaeological Services (ULAS) on land at Fellow Lands Way, Boulton Moor, Chellaston, Derby (SK 382 313) in advance of the proposed development of the site for new housing. The area around the southern part of Derby is rich in archaeological remains with two scheduled sites close to the proposed development area. Recent work on the eastern edge of Boulton Moor has revealed Iron Age archaeological remains. However, an evaluation to the direct east of the current site revealed only small undated features. The site consisted of five pasture fields and one of rough ground. Forty trenches were excavated across the six fields. All were negative except for the shallow remains of medieval furrows and a narrow modern gully. The trenches on the rough ground revealed some modern disturbance. The geology was generally clay with gravel in places and much of the subsoil appeared alluvial in nature. The land was also very damp and trenches became waterlogged very quickly after excavation. It is likely that the land here at the western end of Boulton Moor has been very damp in the past and this has precluded any human settlement in the area. The archive for the project will be retained by ULAS with site code ULAS_15-644.
