Abstract:		 In response to an archaeological condition on the planning consents for the provision of new visitor facilities at the Queen Elizabeth Diamond Jubilee Wood, Ravenstone, Leicestershire, the Heritage Network was commissioned by The Woodland Trust to carry out a programme of archaeological monitoring on the groundworks for the new features where they crossed areas of known archaeological activity. The study area crossed two known areas of archaeological activity, including the postulated line of a Roman road and an area of possible prehistoric enclosures, associated with a number of finds of prehistoric artefacts. It was, therefore, considered that the present investigation had the potential to contribute to a greater understanding of archaeological activity in the region from the prehistoric period onwards. The groundworks on the site were largely shallow, consisting of topsoil strips for new paths, bases for art installations and a Welcome Hub. These did not breach the overburden and any potential buried archaeological features were not disturbed and remain in situ. Where the natural clay was exposed, no archaeological features, deposits or finds were encountered.
