Abstract:		 Between the 8th and 10th March 2017, Britannia Archaeology Ltd (BA) undertook an archaeological investigation by means of monitoring and recording during works associated with a river restoration scheme at Chelmer Valley Local Nature Reserve. The monitoring work was conducted in accordance with a design Brief (Bennett, A., 2015) issued by the Historic Environment Advisor for Chelmsford City Council (CCC/HEA) and a Written Scheme of Investigation written by Adrian Gascoyne of Place Services at Essex County Council (dated September 2015) and approved by CCC. The archaeological background search suggested that the site had a potential for features and finds relating to historical river management and activity on the meadows, in addition to the possible survival of waterlogged and paleoenvironmental remains. No paleoenvironmental remains, finds or features were encountered. Beyond topsoil, subsoil and the natural geology, the monitoring revealed only a single layer of dredged soil adjacent to the riverbank which represents a 19th or 20th Century episode of river management.
