Abstract:		 Installation of new drains at St Bartholomew's Church, Sproxton, Leicestershire, was monitored, in late February and early March 2017. Ground disturbance was mostly confined to the upper layers of the churchyard, generally to a depth of no more than 550mm, except for a silt collection chamber at a depth of 900mm and a soakaway pit, 1.10m deep. South of the church tower, a grave slab, provisionally dated to the first half of the twelfth century, was discovered, buried beneath the surface. Elsewhere, a moderate quantity of disarticulated human bone was noted, much of it from a single location where bones from previously disturbed graves had apparently been re-buried. Other finds included single sherds of medieval and early post-medieval pottery, a number of ferrous metal nails, and a cast iron cross.
