Abstract: |
An archaeological investigation by test pitting was carried out at the 'Stride' building on Shires Plot F (SK 583 046) and the 'Megabowl' complex, Shires Plot G1 and G3 (SK 585 047), St. Peter's Lane, Leicester on behalf of Shires GP Ltd by University of Leicester Archaeological Services. The work assessed the potential depths of overburden, and therefore archaeological deposits or natural substratum, across the two sites as a preliminary investigation prior to evaluation by trial trench. The results revealed that depths of overburden varied across both sites and that a safe zone of 1-1.3m (though generally 1.8m) below the current floor surface was observed for Shires Plot F and 1.4m (though generally 2m) below the current floor surface for Shires Plot G1 and G3. |
