Abstract: |
University of Leicester Archaeological Services were commissioned to undertake an archaeological evaluation of land north of Wycombe Road, West Humberstone. Previous archaeological investigations 200meters to the north had uncovered evidence of twelfth/thirteenth century occupation and there is a known Romano-British settlement and cemetery to the north east. A total of fourteen trenches were machine excavated under archaeological supervision totalling c. 620sq meters. Evidence of medieval ridge and furrow ploughing was uncovered towards the eastern end of the proposed development area. Two undated linear features were recorded towards the western end of the proposed development area |
