Abstract: |
An archaeological earthwork survey by LiDAR study has been prepared for Swanvale Developments on behalf of HORIBA MIRA Ltd by University of Leicester Archaeological Services (ULAS) for land to the west of MIRA, Higham on the Hill, Leicestershire (SP 7470 8870). The survey was undertaken in advance of the proposed development of the site. The analysis was conducted in 2018 using data from 2013. Earthwork survival across the area is generally poor. Some pieces of evidence are used to identify previous land-uses. Features that can be identified can mostly be matched in historic mapping or aerial photographs. The broad topography of the area is discussed and its relationship with the registered battlefield of Bosworth Field. |
