Abstract:		 This document is a fieldwork report for an archaeological trial trench evaluation, which was carried out by University of Leicester Archaeological Services (ULAS) at the Slack and Parr site, Long Lane, Kegworth, Leicestershire (NGR: SK 485 272) in advance of the construction of a new factory and residential development. The site consisted of two set-aside fields to the north and south of the Slack and Parr industrial site, which lies at the junction of Side Ley and Long Lane, to the north of the town centre of Kegworth in North-West Leicestershire. The site lies to the south of Lockington Quarry where significant prehistoric and Roman archaeological remains have been revealed. Long Lane is also listed on the Historic Environment Record for Leicestershire and Rutland as a possible Roman road. Geophysical survey carried out in 2014 as part of the evaluation of the Slack and Par site revealed few features that could be archaeological in nature. However, a small group of anomalies located on the northern part of the site were deemed worthy of investigation. Therefore, a total of seven trenches were placed across two fields. No archaeological remains were identified. A pair of pits within Trenches 06 and 07 within Field 2 on the southern part of the site, proved to be modern in origin. A further disturbed area in Trench 07 proved to be natural in origin. The archive for the site will be deposited with Leicestershire Museums with accession number X.A2.2019.
