A Late Neolithic Circular Structure Discovered in Rothley,

Temple Grange, Leicestershire

Excavations carried out in 2010 at Rothley in Leicestershire have revealed evidence for a Neolithic settlement, the highlight being a rare discovery of a Neolithic circular structure dated by Grooved Ware pottery and C14 samples to c. 2700 – 2500 BC. Surrounding this was evidence for at least a further two possible structures, along with numerous pits containing significant quantities of artefacts.
