Abstract: |
The site is located within the central part of Leicester, to the east of St. Nicholas Circle, north of Peacock Lane at the southern end of Careys Close within the historic Roman and medieval walled city. An evaluation trench was excavated using a mechanical excavator measuring 16m x 4m, orientated N/S across the development area. After the machine removal of the Post medieval garden soils, medieval and Roman features were evident, After hand cleaning of the machined area a small proportion of the medieval features were partially excavated to categorise the depth of the medieval and Roman archaeology. The finds and site records archive will be deposited with Leicester City Museum Service, accession number A5.2007. |
