Abstract The abstract describing the content of the publication or report Abstract:	This report presents the findings of an archaeological trial trench evaluation carried out by University of Leicester Archaeological Services (ULAS) on the proposed site of the TIC-IT Project, MIRA, Higham-on-the-Hill, Leicestershire (SP 36860 97195). The archaeological evaluation was carried for Swanvale Developments on behalf of Horiba MIRA Ltd in advance of the proposed development of the site for a new high-speed limit-handling facility. The site lies close to findspots for a number of prehistoric artefacts and is close to two Roman roads and Roman settlement remains. The proposed development area also lies partially within the registered battlefield of the Battle of Bosworth and there are two deserted medieval villages close to the site. The main MIRA testing site lies upon a former WWII airfield and modern remains associated with the airfield have been found during earlier evaluations. The proposed TIC-IT site lies upon arable, pasture and set-aside land to the north-west of the main MIRA site. A total of sixty-nine 30m x 1.9m trenches were placed across a total of ten fields. No archaeological remains were encountered during the evaluation.
