Cooper Archaeological watching briefs which have produced no significant archaeological features or finds are listed at the end of the relevant county sections. In each case, the parish/site name is followed by the name of the organisation which undertook the fieldwork. For abbreviations see below p. iv. Some entries may relate to fieldwork undertaken before 2008 but not previously reported. LEICESTER All finds and records are deposited with LCMS under the accession number cited at the end of the entry. Humberstone, Manor Farm (SK 6285 0642) John Thomas Archaeological recording of a medieval windmill mound at Manor Farm, Humberstone was undertaken by ULAS in advance of development by Gateway College. Excavation revealed the mound to consist of two deposits of clay, both associated with a phase of the mound’s development. A re-cut ditch encircled the mound and originally acted as quarry for the mound soils. Beneath the mound, well-preserved timber cross-tree foundations survived in situ within a construction slot cut directly into the natural clay. Pottery recovered from the construction slot and primary fills of each ditch cut indicated a twelfth –thirteenth century period of use for the mill. Later pottery in the final ditch fills suggest the mill ditches had become largely in-filled by the seventeenth –eighteenth century. A6.1999. Leicester Abbey (SK 585 060) Andrew Hyam and Stephen Jones In June and July of 2006 and 2007, ULAS undertook a seventh and eighth season of training excavations at the site of Leicester Abbey, for students of the University’s School of Archaeology and Ancient History.
