Abstract:		 Archaeological Research Services Ltd has undertaken an archaeological evaluation on behalf of Heritage Archaeology Ltd. on land at Bosworth Lodge, Welford Road, near Husbands Bosworth. The investigation forms part of pre-commencement works in support of a planning application (20/00569/FUL) for the erection of a single, two-bedroom detached property with associated landscaping and parking. The Proposed Development Area (PDA) sits in close proximity to the scheduled ancient monument of Pinslade Grange (NHLE 1010484 HER 342083), 200 metres to the south. The significance of the monument derives from it being one of only a small number of monastic granges which can be accurately located and planned. Furthermore, recent investigations within Leicestershire have revealed increasing evidence of Neolithic ditch systems as well as associated finds. Although none of these discoveries where connected with the PDA, the relatively unspoiled nature of the site increases the possibility that evidence for Iron Age activity could exist (Burpoe 2018). The evaluation was undertaken between the 8th and 9th March 2021 in accordance with a Written Scheme of Investigation agreed with the Leicestershire County Council (LCC) (Appendix III). The works comprised four non-targeted trenches that mirror the footprint of the PDA. The trench locations were positioned by Heritage Archaeology Ltd. The evaluation consisted of four trenches designed to assess the presence/absence of archaeology in the footprint of the proposed detached property and associated parking. No archaeological remains were encountered, excepting several land drains. The subsoil observed was particularly deep and is interpreted as glacial till, most likely derived from the Beestonian, Anglian or Woolstonian glaciations (BGS 2021).
