Abstract The abstract describing the content of the publication or report Abstract:	An archaeological evaluation by trial trenching was carried out on land at 104 Main Street, Kibworth Harcourt, Leicestershire (SP 68036 94564) by University of Leicester Archaeological Services (ULAS) on 24 September, 2018. Work was undertaken for Mr and Mrs Hill in order to establish the nature, extent, date and significance of any archaeological deposits which may be present, in order that an assessment may be made of the impact of any proposed development on the buried remains. The application area comprised a c.950 sq m area of garden on the south side of Main Street in close proximity to The Motte, a scheduled ancient monument thought to represent the site of a former castle. One 10m by 1.5m trench was excavated across the footprint of the proposed new dwelling. The evaluation has produced limited evidence for 19th- and 20th-century residential activity - namely artefacts and CBM in the garden's topsoil, and the burial of a pet. No other archaeological features or deposits were recorded. On the balance of evidence recorded during the investigation, it would appear that ground across the application area was extensively reworked in the recent past, possibly associated with pig farming. This had potentially removed and/or replaced subsoil and topsoil deposits. No evidence was found to suggest other archaeological activity was taking place in the area. The archive will be held by Leicestershire Museums Service under the accession number X.A103.2018.
