Abstract: |
In July 2011 Archaeological Solutions (AS) carried an archaeological evaluation at land at Moor Hall Farm, Rainham, Essex (NGR TQ 5500 8160). The evaluation was commissioned by Andy Clark of Ingrebourne Valley Ltd and was undertaken in compliance with a planning condition required by the London Borough of Havering and attached to planning consent for the construction of a golf course and re-profile of the site. During rescue excavations undertaken in 1979, features dating to the Palaeolithic, Mesolithic and Neolithic periods as well as a Bronze Age cemetery were uncovered. Evidence of Romano-British and medieval settlement have also been identified in the area. During a recent evaluation of Phases I and II of the current site (McCall 2009) prehistoric features were recorded in the eastern part of the site, and medieval features were recorded at the southern end of the site. Archaeological monitoring recorded additional medieval remains (Pozorski 2010). Therefore the site had a potential for prehistoric and medieval archaeological remains. In the event the current evaluation revealed two small pits, one of ?prehistoric date, and two linear features. The latter were probably part of the same modern feature, and likely a ditch. |
