Abstract: |
In response to an archaeological condition on the planning permission for a new outdoor riding arena at Elmdon Bury, Elmdon Essex, the Heritage Network was commissioned by the owner to undertake the archaeological monitoring of the development groundworks. The fieldwork revealed unstratified pottery ranging in date from the late Bronze Age to the late post-medieval period, indicating that the site is located in an area of high archaeolgical potential. The only features revealed were late post-medieval post-medieval field boundaries and a HaHa. The backfill of the HaHa yielded worked stone. The only identifiable piece was part of a 13th century octagonal capital, carved from a fine grained limestone, possibly chalk. The stone is likely to have come from the nearby church of St Nicholas. |
