Abstract:		 An archaeological investigation was undertaken at 8-10 Marlborough Road, Chelmsford in advance of residential development. A single T-shaped evaluation trench covering 31 sq. m was excavated across the front half of the site. The recorded archaeological remains consisted of four features of Roman date. No remains of prehistoric, Iron Age date or post-Roman date were encountered other than a few disturbances of a clearly modern nature. All of the excavated features were poorly defined and the site had been subject to modern disturbance and compaction. The Roman features consisted of two pits, a ditch and a gully. All probably date to the later Roman period (AD250+) and are associated with extra mural settlement close to the London-Colchester Roman road and south of the Roman town. Finds from the four features included pottery, pieces of lava quern, iron hobnails and a glass bead. The ditch and gully were aligned parallel to the Roman road and are likely to be divisions towards the rear of a property fronting the road located c.70m to the east. The ditch was a substantial feature that may have been a major field or property boundary
