Abstract:		 MOLA monitored the excavation of a test pit on land west of Back Lane, Castle Donington, Leicestershire in order to confirm the presence/absence of a possible palaeochannel previously recorded in Trench 17 during the evaluation carried out by MOLA in 2017. On excavation of the test pit and analysis of historic maps it was ascertained that there was an infilled post-medieval boundary ditch in the location of the putative palaeochannel. Sherds of 19th and 20th-century pottery were also recovered from the ditch.
