Abstract: |
An archaeological field evaluation was carried out by University of Leicester Archaeological Services (ULAS) on land at Leicester Lane, Great Bowden, Leicestershire. The work was commissioned in advance of a residential development by Gladman Developments as part of the discharge of Condition 22 on planning permission 16/01942/OUT. A desk-based assessment and geophysical survey have previously been undertaken which identified archaeological potential and located anomalies, some of possible archaeological origin. The site consisted of 2 areas of excavation to the north of Leicester Lane on the western boundary of Great Bowden. Fourteen trenches were excavated across the area of proposed development with archaeological features in 5 of the 14 trenches. Features included gullies and ditches with diagnostic sherds of pottery indicating 1st-2nd century Roman in date. The archive for this site will be deposited with Leicestershire County Museums with accession number X.A41.2018. |
