Abstract:		 An archaeological field evaluation was carried out by University of Leicester Archaeological Services (ULAS) on land at Denbydale, Wigston in Leicestershire. The work was commissioned in advance of a potential residential development by Jelsons Ltd. 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 a 2.3 hectare arable field on the edge of Wigston Magna. Seventeen trenches were excavated across the area of proposed development with archaeological features in 12 of the 17 trenches. Features included gullies, ditches, postholes and pits 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.A52.2018.
