Abstract: |
Archaeological work was undertaken prior to groundworks for alterations and extensions to Little Croft, Main Street, Theddingworth Leicestershire (NGR SP 66702 85755). The area of the proposed extension was stripped of topsoil and subsoil in order to identify and record any archaeological deposits which may be disturbed by the development. Investigation revealed a single large archaeological feature within the affected area, which appeared to represent an in-filled ditch or pond. Finds from the feature included both medieval pottery and post-medieval tile fragments, suggesting that it was backfilled in the post-medieval period. It was not possible to expose the full extent of the feature, as this was outside the area which would be disturbed. No further archaeological features were encountered. The archive will be held by Leicestershire County Council under the Accession Number X. A95. 2014. |
