Abstract:
Headland Archaeology conducted an evaluation at a proposed development site of land to the south-east of Earl Shilton, Leicestershire in order to provide further information on the archaeological potential of the site. A total of thirty-three trenches were excavated over the Development Area (DA). This revealed archaeological remains from several periods. The quality of remains varied by period and we have formulated the view that the highest quality and most significant remains date to the Bronze Age and Early Iron Age. The majority of these remains are located in the north-eastern part of the DA and take the form of ditches, pits and a cremation. Such remains are indicative of occupation within the DA. This activity may extend beyond its boundaries. There were other, less datable but probably prehistoric remains spread across the DA. These may be best characterized as peripheral to, but possibly related to the occupation at HA1/2. Remains from other periods were of a less significant nature and not representative of occupation being land boundaries and/or field systems (HA3-7).
