Abstract The abstract describing the content of the publication or report Abstract:	An archaeological strip, plan and sample excavation was undertaken on land adjacent to The Laurels, Main Street, Normanton-Le-Heath, Leicestershire between the 5th and the 10th of September 2018 by University of Leicester Archaeological Services (ULAS). Outline planning permission has been granted for a residential development and associated outbuildings and hardstanding on the land. A preliminary archaeological strip, plan and sample excavation undertaken in 2017 had produced evidence for medieval settlement dating to the 12th to 14th centuries within the footprint of the main dwelling. In light of these findings, the Leicestershire County Council, Senior Planning Archaeologist, as advisor to the local planning authority, requested that a programme of additional archaeological investigation take place in order to identify the impact on the archaeological resource of groundworks associated with construction of outbuildings, roadway and parking, and to formulate a mitigation strategy if appropriate. Monitoring of the machine strip of the area of the stable block, barn and stable yard produced no indications of archaeology. However, monitoring of the access road and parking area revealed a pit and several linear features of 12th to 14th date and likely constitute medieval domestic activity at the rear of properties running west from High Street. It is possible that the linear feature [27]/[29] represents a division between two such properties, and that the other, smaller linears represent horticultural closes, livestock pens subdivisions or similar. As such they tally with evidence from the 2017 fieldwork.
