Abstract:		 The evaluation was undertaken in advance of the commercial redevelopment of the site. Eight trenches were excavated on the east side of the proposed development area, which lies immediately to the west of the Harlow Romano-British Temple site. The site lies on the north-eastern edge of Harlow, immediately south of the River Stort, situated on artificially levelled ground. The evaluation revealed the presence of modern demolition debris and made ground to a depth of approximately 2m below ground level. Beneath this the trenches revealed alluvial deposits of peat and silt, the date of which is unknown however the upper layers of this alluvial sediment may date to the post-medieval/modern period and represent a marshy ground surface present prior to the late 20th century landscaping which raised the ground level during the areas development as an industrial estate. No archaeological finds or features were noted in any of the trenches, indicating that prior to the late 20th century landscaping, the area may have been unsuitable for any land use other than agricultural, due to its position in the floodplain of the river.
