Abstract: |
An archaeological evaluation was undertaken in advance of residential development. It was hoped that the project would reveal evidence of a Roman road between Great Dunmow and Chelmsford (SMR 1185), the associated Roman cemetery (SMR 13886) and the Saxon/medieval boundary of Dunmow Park (SMR 7329 - 7331). Six trenches were excavated which revealed two water-filled features in trenches 3 & 6. A ditch was revealed in trenches 1 & 2, and a probable continuation was seen in trench 5. Eight abraded residual pottery sherds were recovered from the latter feature in association with modern debris. The anticipated Roman road and cemetery, and Saxon/medieval park boundary were not revealed and the site was considered to have been largely disturbed during its use as a railway yard. [Au] |
