Abstract: |
A watching brief on the lying of a 4km long water pipe revealed a Roman ditch and pit at Castle Hedingham, close to the site previously excavated at the sourceworks in 1992. The ditch broadly followed the alignment of the 1992 features. There were other undated features, recent drain lines, and other features connected with the now demolished railway line. Loose surface finds included Roman, medieval and post-medieval pottery, and a few struck prehistoric flints. Although no subsoil features were seen, a large group of burnt flints and a quantity of Roman pottery were found in the plough soil. This may have been on the periphery of a prehistoric and Roman site lying upslope of this spot. [Au] |
