The school requested that the parish council contribute to further screening. RESOLVED that contact be made with the school to discuss options and to obtain quotes for the cost of the work. Members noted the following concern raised by a resident That the Parish Council had arranged for part of the ditch in Donkey Lane (next to allotments) to be cleared, and in doing so, damage had been caused to his father’s allotment and spoil had been dumped on it. The clerk investigated the matter and could find no evidence that the Parish Council had arranged for the work and had written accordingly to the resident. 60/20 Sapcote/Granitethorpe Quarry Members and residents remain concerned about activities at Granitethorp and Sapcote quarries as evidenced through comments on Facebook, complaints to Blaby District Council and contact with Alberto Costa MP over the last few months.

  • The Roman Sites of South-West Leicestershire: Mancetter, Sapcote
    PI.ATE I. HIXCKLEY BUST Scale : J. (Height 15i inches) THE ROMAN SITES OF SOUTH-WEST LEICESTERSHIRE BY ARTHUR J. PICKERING, F.G.S. PART II MANCETTER (MANDUESSEDUM) SAPCOTE, BARWELL AND HINCKLEY WITH NOTES ON ADJACENT SITES Mancetter (Manduessedum) Plate II THERE seems to have been little difference of opinion among early historians as to the site of the Manduessedum of the Antonine Itinerary. The well-defined earthworks astride the Watling Street near the village of Mancetter conform in plan to other recognised Roman stations and approximately to the distance north of Venonse (XII m.p.) given in the Itinerary. Although many Roman antiquities have from time to time been unearthed in this neighbourhood, it was not until 1927 that any systematic investigation had been carried out to fix the station site definitely. About this time, Messrs. Flowers & Sons, I«td.—the owners of the Bull Inn—were contemplating the construction of a car park adjoining their premises. Fortunately, the earthworks had been scheduled by H.M. Office of Works under the Ancient Monuments Act of 1913, and, as the Bull Inn is entirely within the ramparts, no alterations could be made without their sanction. As the time seemed opportune for investigation, the Birming­ ham Archaeological Society offered to excavate the site in question. This was carried out under the supervision of Mr. B. H. St. J. O'Neil, who published his report in that Society's Transactions of 1928. The ground excavated measured 106 ft. by 36 ft., with its longest axis parallel to and adjoining the Watling Street.
