As a result of this, I have urgently written to the Managing Director of DB Symmetry inviting him to a meeting in Westminster so that we can discuss this proposal in greater detail. Since my election in 2015, I have been working very closely with the Sharnford Traffic Action Group (STAG) and Sharnford Parish Council to address the troublesome traffic issues that many of the Fosse Villages experience and as such, it is of paramount importance that both I and my constituents fully understand the proposals before us”.

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.

  • 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.
