Abstract:		 Evaluation revealed the presence of buried archaeological remains in three of five trenches, under a variable thickness of c.0.18-1.23m of overburden and/or made-ground, which generally increases northwards across the site. Medieval remains mainly comprised pits, in the east of the site that constituted the remains of domestic and possible manufacturing (bone working for the Thaxted cutlery industry) activities undertaken to the rear of posited roadside properties during the c.12th-15th centuries. Tudor period pitting may have represent continuing activity. The presence and extents of a post-medieval non-conformist (Quaker) burial ground in the northeast of the site was confirmed. It included inhumation burials in brick-lined graves/vaults. Remains relating to subsequent use of the site as a Sunday School and then sweet factory were also found.
