Abstract: |
In March and April 2010, Archaeological Solutions Ltd (AS) carried out a programme of archaeological monitoring and recording during groundworks associated with the construction of two extensions to a residential dwelling at Elm Cottage, Newmarket Road, Great Chesterford, Essex (NGR: TL 5041 4320). The monitoring was commissioned by Mrs Pat Maurice and was undertaken in compliance with a planning condition attached to planning approval (Uttlesford District Council (Ref. UTT/1045/09/FUL). The site lies within the area of the 4th century Roman walled town (EHER 4925) and next to the 1st century fort (EHER 4944). The site had the potential for Roman remains, as evidenced by a previous evaluation carried out on the site. For the music room a shallow raft foundation was inserted, and for the kitchen extension strip foundation trenches were excavated. In the event the foundations were relatively shallow and did not penetrate modern deposits. |
