The Roman cemetery is thought to be a significant find
A team of archaeologists in Leicestershire has uncovered several ancient bodies at the site of a new park-and-ride development.
Excavations are continuing in Enderby after the discovery of what is thought to be a small Roman rural cemetery.
The skeletons were found close to the former Fosse Way Roman road.
Archaeologists have also found bodies from the Iron Age at the same site, a silver Roman coin as well as items from the medieval period.
