Abstract:
University of Leicester Archaeological Services (ULAS) carried out an archaeological evaluation for land at Ashton Green, Residential Parcel 4, Leicester, LE4 2SB on behalf of Kier Living Ltd. Eighty-two trenches, totalling 4549m² were excavated to evaluate pasture land and an arable farming field. The archaeological work was carried out from the 23rd October - 8th of November 2018, in accordance with the National Planning Policy Framework, Section 16: Conserving and Enhancing the Historic Environment. The archaeological evaluation recorded features in four of the trenches, and also some unstratified finds. Iron Age pottery was recovered from a large pit, and mid to late 1st century through 2nd century Roman pottery was recovered from two gully's. Neolithic and Bronze Age flints, mostly unstratified, were also recovered from the site. This evidence suggests human activity within the site, and / or within close proximity of the site. The site archive will be held with Leicester Museum Service, under the accession code: Y.A20.2018.
