Abstract:		 An archaeological evaluation was carried out at the proposed Colchester Institute Site, Mundon Road, Maldon, Essex in advance of the submission of a planning application for the construction of a Vocational Training Centre. Seven trenches were excavated across the c. 1.4 hectare site. Three further trenches were originally planned for the south of the site but were not excavated due to the presence of live services. The proposed development area was located within the southern half of an existing playing field on the eastern side of Mundon Road, close to the south-eastern limit of the modern town and over 0.5 km from Maldon's historic High Street and Hythe area. It also lies 0.5km to the west of the designated battlefield site of the battle of Maldon, fought between the English and the Danes in 991. A ditch of probable 19th or 20th century date was identified along with a similarly dated brick and flint hardcore deposit perhaps used to firm up a boggy area or part of an area of hard standing. Although the site was located close to the presumed site of a Roman road no remains of that date were identified, nor any remains associated with Saxon or medieval activities on the fringe of the historic town or the designated battlefield
