Abstract: |
This report describes the results of an archaeological observation carried out at 7-35 Knights Close, Billesdon, Leicestershire (NGR SK 71746 02870) by Pre-Construct Archaeology Ltd (PCA). The observation occurred between the 20th of June 2016 and the 10th of May 2017 and the archaeological work was commissioned by Pelham Architects. During the course of the archaeological works, the removal of foundations associated with the former development on site was observed along with all groundworks associated with the new development. The aim of the work was to characterise the archaeological potential of the proposed development area. No distinct archaeological features were observed during the removal of the previous foundations and groundworks associated with development except for modern drainage features and layers relating to recent disturbance and the previous development. Only post-medieval and modern material was recovered during the archaeological observation. |
