Abstract: |
PCAS Archaeology Ltd. (PCAS) was commissioned by CgMs Consulting Ltd. to undertake a scheme of archaeological trial trenching on land off Welford Road, Wigston, Leicestershire, to assess the potential for, and survival of, any archaeological remains within the grounds of a proposed development. The trial trenching followed a geophysical survey undertaken in 2017, the results of which indicated widespread furrows. The evaluation took place in November 2017: nine trenches were excavated across the site, each measuring 30m long by 1.8m wide. The trenches identified a common stratigraphic sequence and confirmed the presence of furrows across the majority of the site, but otherwise recorded no archaeological features. |
