Abstract:
A five trial trench evaluation and borehole survey was undertaken by Britannia Archaeology Ltd at Sadds Wharf, Station Road, Maldon, Essex (NGR TL 8546 0731) in May and June of 2014. The greatest potential for surviving archaeological remains were believed to be buildings associated with the former Steam Saw Mill that was previously present on the site and was of Post-medieval date. The evaluation revealed four phases of site activity. No archaeological phases believed to be earlier than the post-medieval were present, the site being located in an area that was known to be marshland certainly until the mid-part of the 19th century. The evaluation discovered the presence of probable Timber Causeway 1016, a series of horizontally placed timbers forming a surface running east to west through Trench 3. The evaluation also encountered the remains of the former Tidal Defence for the site. Tidal Defence 1014 was revealed in Trench 2 and likely relates to the successive phases of reclamation that occurred in the intertidal zone through the 19th century. Analysis of the Timbers from Tidal Defence 1014 noted the probable re use of the oak timbers and utilization of woodworking waste suggests a fairly lowly structure, perhaps not expected to last a long time, but fit for purpose.
