  • Archaeology in Leicestershire and Rutland 1988 by Peter Liddle
    Archaeology in Leicestershire and Rutland 1988 by Peter Liddle INTERIM REPORTS The Shires Excavation - An interim report The Leicestershire Archaeological Unit has just completed the Shires Excavation (March 1988 to February 1989), examining two areas, one on St Peter's Lane (SK58520468) directed by Richard Buckley and the other on Little Lane, (SK 585804640), directed by John Lucas. As the excavations have only just been completed, a short summary is given here and a more substantial report will be produced later. Residual flint and pottery from the Bronze Age through to the Iron Age, was found, but the earliest identifiable features were dated to the late 1st century. The lack of any early Roman features could suggest that the original Roman town developed further to the west. These earliest features consisted of a series of re-cut ditches, orientated north to south which were possibly field ditches. The first substantial Roman activity came in the late 1st to early 2nd century when the town's street grid was laid down. Part of this grid was identified on the Little Lane site in the form of a street orientated north to south which cut across the centre of the excavation. In the early 2nd century, timber buildings were erected either side of this street. There was no evidence at all of any building pre-dating the street grid. Several hearths, associated with these early buildings, suggest some form of industrial activity was being pursued in this area of the town. Several Roman pits were located, suggesting a period of dereliction, subsequent to the early timber buildings, but ante-dating later phase of timber structures.

This ramifies back and forth with evidence. In southern Germany, for example, secular matters: cultural identity, nucleation, churches were first built at fords or crossroads, manorialisation, and here the existence of hilltops, burial barrows, or springs for baptism, Leicestershire itself.

  • Geology and Building Stones in the East Midlands Graham Lott
    Geology and building stones in the East Midlands Graham Lott Abstract. The East Midlands has a diverse heritage of stone buildings reflecting the varied character of the regions geological strata. The principal stones used in the buildings of the area are described and identified and placed in their modern stratigraphic context. This very diversity, however, while providing a colourful backdrop to the villages and towns of the area for all to enjoy, presents an increasing problem to those concerned with conserving these structures, as many of the stones are now no longer quarried. With the increasingly rapid expansion and Publications concerned with the building stones of development of our cities, towns and villages, by the an area are often focused on their use in the addition of rather bland, mass-produced brick built archaeology or conservation of historic structures. housing developments, metal clad factories and However, the building stone industry has never been glass-fronted office blocks, the end of a millennium concerned with providing stone solely for is perhaps a particularly suitable time to reflect upon conservation purposes.

The work, directed by Richard Buckley and Steve Jones, 4 comprised the examination of a large trench at the presumed site of the Abbey kitchen 5 and two smaller trenches within the west range. The latter were located to target a 6 complex of drains which appear on the surviving plans of the 1920s excavation. The 7 results proved to be relatively inconclusive. Results from the trench in the postulated 8 kitchen area, however, were very positive and continued to indicate good 9 archaeological survival, as suggested by the narrow trench excavated during the 10 previous 2002 season (TLAHS 77, 125–6). This had revealed two substantial, 1 possibly 2m wide, walls on an east–west orientation, forming respectively the north 2 and south walls of a square kitchen block located just to the south of the refectory 3 range.

  • Six Hills and Vernemetum, Leicestershire the Twilight Age Bob Trubshaw Volume Seven
    The Especially Sacred Grove: Six Hills and Vernemetum, Leicestershire The Twilight Age Bob Trubshaw Volume Seven Little is known about the Roman small town on the Leicestershire:Nottinghamshire borders except its name: Vernemetum. This means the 'Great or Especially Sacred Grove' and tells us there was a regionally – or perhaps even nationally – important Iron Age ritual site in the vicinity. In trying to understand more about this Iron Age site Bob Trubshaw also looks at the likely Anglo-Saxon successor, the hundred moot site at Six Hills a mile or so to the south. This detailed look at these places is based on current academic research combined with twenty-five years of fieldwork and personal research. By looking closely at these places he also helps us to understand more clearly Anglo-Saxon ritual sites elsewhere. This extended essay both draws upon and supercedes Bob Trubshaw's previous publications about Six Hills and the Leicestershire Wolds. About The Twilight Age series Not that many decades ago English history between the fifth the eleventh centuries was deemed the ‘Dark Ages’, largely because of the lack of evidence. Much has changed, and scholarship has shed considerable light on the later centuries. However by then many parts of Britain were evolving into Anglo-Scandinavian culture. Evidence for the Anglo-Germanic fifth and sixth centuries is still scarce and difficult to interpret, so the epithet ‘Dark Ages’ is still apt. The years in between occupy a comparative ‘twilight zone’, fascinating because of numerous social changes, not least the various cultural transitions which ultimately led to Christianity being the dominant religion.
