Archaeologists working in the oldest part of Leicester have said they are “pleased” to have found nothing.

The excavation was started ahead of work on a park-and-ride bus hub in St Nicholas Place.

The area is believed to the site of both the richest part of the medieval city and the Roman forum.

But the University of Leicester team said they had decided to dig to a minimum depth and it looked as if any remains would be left undisturbed.
