Abstract:		 A small archaeological excavation was carried out by the Essex CC Field Archaeology Unit at the Othona Community site, within the footprint of a proposed new residential block to the south of the current main building. A previous excavation in 1992-3 immediately to the north of the site recorded a series of natural gullies related to the salt marsh, a few prehistoric features, a large number of late Roman features representing extra-mural activity to the north of the fort, and a Saxon pit, all sealed by an early medieval estuarine flood deposit (Medlycott 1994). The earliest evidence recorded comprised two gullies loosely dated to the prehistoric period. The majority of the archaeological evidence represents late 3rd to late 4th century extra-mural activity related to the Roman fort. Parts of two ditched enclosures were recorded, together with a short length of a late 4th century rubble foundation, probably part of an outbuilding, and two rubbish pits. The Roman features and finds complement those from the 1992-3 excavation. A Second World War tank trap and several modern drains truncated several of the archaeological features.
