Abstract: |
University of Leicester Archaeological Services (ULAS) carried out an Archaeological Strip, Map and Sample Excavation on land, known as Paradise Found, situated opposite The Coach House, Leicester Road, Sapcote, Leicestershire (NGR: SP 49321 93437) prior to erection of a hay barn, equipment storage shed and extension to existing stable block. The archaeological fieldwork was intended to provide an appropriate mitigation strategy to record the heritage assets to be impacted upon. This document presents details of the work carried out by ULAS on behalf of the client following consultation with the Planning Archaeologist for Leicestershire on behalf of the planning authority, Blaby District Council. The Planning Archaeologist required the footprint of the three proposed buildings to be stripped down to the first archaeological layer or the natural sub stratum to expose any surviving archaeology. Of the three areas stripped only one, in Area 3, contained archaeology, a section of a Romano British ditch. Pottery, animal bone and an environmental sample were recovered from the ditch and drawings were made and photographs taken. A record of the archaeological excavation will be transferred to the Leicestershire Museums Service under the Accession Number X.A65.2018. |
