Abstract: |
University of Leicester Archaeological Services (ULAS) carried out an archaeological evaluation on land east of Longbreach Road, Kibworth Beauchamp from the 7th-8th August 2017 on behalf of BDW Trading Ltd. Seven trenches, totalling 288m2, a 4% sample of the site, were excavated to evaluate a field adjoining a recently developed area, where it is proposed to construct 18 new dwellings (Planning Ref: 15/01929/FUL). None of the trenches contained archaeological features other than medieval plough furrows and field drains. The ridge and furrow are still visible as prominent earthworks over the northern part of the field and are an indication of land-use reflecting the distance from the village core during the medieval period. It is likely that the land has been under pasture since Enclosure in the post-medieval period. The site archive will be held by under the Accession Number X.A88 2017. |
