Abstract:		 University of Leicester Archaeological Services (ULAS) carried out an archaeological investigation on land at St. Nicholas Circle, Leicester (SK 58226 04453). The trial trench evaluation of six 2.5m² trenches were located below the footpath immediately adjacent to the south of the Jewry Wall baths ruins and museum along St. Nicholas Circle. Archaeological evidence was located in all six evaluation trenches and consisted of Roman, medieval, and post-medieval archaeology. The evaluation trenches lay on the south-east side of the Roman bath complex. A Roman wall was located in two trenches, as well as an opus signinum floor, together with numerous Roman artefacts. These could relate to the baths complex, or else be evidence for a separate building adjacent to the baths. A clay-bonded medieval wall was located within Trench 4, perhaps footings for a building fronting onto St. Nicholas Street. The human remains discovered in Trench 1 were disturbed by later service pipes, these are likely to be burials associated with the St. Nicholas churchyard to the NE. The site archive will be held by Leicester Museums Service, under accession number A.7.2016.
