Abstract:
Archaeology South-East was commissioned by Nexus Land to conduct an archaeological evaluation on Land at the Grangewood Centre, 10-12 High Street, Kelvedon, Essex. The evaluation comprised eight trenches. Natural deposits were recorded between 21.60m and 24.12m aOD; they were generally overlain by topsoil and subsoil although made ground was recorded in the north and south-west of the site. A Roman road previously postulated to run across the site was found in three of the trenches, it was constructed from sandy make up deposits overlain by hard gravel surface all lying within a shallow cut. The road varied greatly in width and appeared to have areas of metalling either side of the main road surface. No roadside ditches were recorded and no dateable finds were retrieved from the road deposits. This road is likely to be a minor branch road of the main London to Colchester road, possibly heading towards a small fort to the north0east of the site. No associated Roman features were found surrounding the road. The road was cut by two features, one a probable pit, the other an undated ditch running along the same Alignment as the road, this could represent a rear boundary to plots fronting Kelvedon High Street which also runs along the same alignment. The remaining features were of modern date and comprised postholes in the north of the site.
