Abstract:		 Between November and December 2017 MOLA (Museum of London Archaeology) Northampton carried out an archaeological excavation on land off Warwick Road, Kibworth Harcourt, Leicestershire. The site revealed a landscape of sub-rectangular enclosures lying on both sides of an east-west aligned ditched trackway. The enclosures and trackway were in use from the Middle-Late Iron Age into the Roman period. The enclosures and ditches show signs of recutting and minor alterations throughout their use. One additional enclosure may have been Saxon. Four Saxon inhumation burials, C14 dated to the 7th-8th century, were associated with the Iron Age/ Roman trackway ditches. A pit cut into a corner of an Iron Age enclosure contained eleven iron items including a pattern-welded seax and barrel padlock, dated to the 10th century. During the medieval period the land was under ridge and furrow ploughing and a headland was observed following the line of the earlier trackway.
