Hlaew and medieval farmstead immediately south west of Park House is a scheduled ancient monument located in Leicestershire, England. The site comprises two distinct periods of settlement: a prehistoric burial mound known as a hlaew, and the remains of a medieval farmstead that developed in close proximity to this earlier monument. The juxtaposition of the prehistoric and medieval remains on this location demonstrates continuity of land use across several centuries, with the medieval community establishing their settlement near the older earthwork. The monument's survival as an archaeological site has preserved evidence of both the Anglo-Saxon or earlier burial tradition and the subsequent medieval agricultural settlement.
