Abstract: |
An archaeological evaluation, comprising a single 10m trench, was undertaken on behalf of Mr S. Wong in December 2018 ahead of a proposed extension to No. 48 Barton Road, Market Bosworth. A probable linear ditch containing Roman tile and pottery was identified at the trench's eastern end, alongside a posthole incorporating a large packing stone. The ditch had been cut on its eastern edge by a later pit, while to the east an animal burrow or root bole was also found to contain Roman tile and pottery, probably derived from nearby Roman features. The work confirmed that Roman remains, potentially associated with a known Roman building and scheduled monument, continue to the south of No. 48 but are concentrated to the east of the present building. |
