Abstract The abstract describing the content of the publication or report |
TL 381009. The single-arch bridge over the lower mill stream at Waltham Abbey was excavated in advance of roadworks. The bridge had three double-chamfered ribs set skew to the abutments. The springers were of Caen stone; the ribs and ashlar facing of the abutments were of Kentish ragstone. The abutments were set on oak sill-plates and staggered rows of elm piles. Bank revetting and coffer-dam timbers were also found. The bridge is compared with the nearby single-arch Stony Bridge. A mid-14th century date is established by dendrochronology. Documentary study has enabled phases in the development of the watercourse system to be postulated. Specialist appendices: dendrochronology, pottery (medieval), animal bones and freshwater mollusca (see also 72/1322). Au | |||||||||
