Abstract: |
This report details the working methods and results of an archaeological watching brief undertaken by Pre-Construct Archaeology Ltd at Keepers Cottage, Debdale Lane, Gumley, Leicestershire. The work was commissioned by Victoria Mellor and undertaken between the 20th February and 6th November 2014. This was conducted in order to define and record any archaeological deposits exposed during the construction of a two-storey rear extension and associated services. The investigation identified a buried plough soil containing a fragment of late 16th - early 17th Century pottery a subsequent subsoil layer produced a scattering of pottery from the 17th -20th century. Three modern postholes were cut into the subsoil, a single residual late Neolithic to Bronze Age flint piercer was recovered from one of the postholes. |
