Abstract:		 In June 2021, Cotswold Archaeology carried out an archaeological watching brief during groundworks associated with the laying of the Colchester Strategic Optimisation Main at Layer de la Haye, Essex. The groundworks comprised the excavation of twenty drill test pits. A single undated ditch was noted in Trench 6 within an area of cropmarks visible on satellite imagery taken in 2018, and three small sherds of Roman pottery and one fragment of post-medieval peg tile were recovered from a colluvial deposit within Trench 14. No further features or deposits of archaeological interest were observed, and no additional artefactual material was recovered.
