Abstract: |
As the result of a condition on the planning permission for the proposed development at 'Maranello', Walden Road, Thaxted, Essex, the Heritage Network was commissioned by the developer to undertake a programme of archaeological investigation. Stage 1 of the investigation was a detailed survey of the mound in its existing form, this was followed, by stage 2, the recording of an exposed section on the northern face of the mound. The subsequent stages comprised the removal of all the mound material down to natural, under archaeological supervision and control. The investigations, supplemented by map and documentary evidence, indicate that the mound was of single phase construction, dating to the post-medieval period. It was constructed at some point in the 17th or 18th century and supported a post windmill that remained in use until the late 19th century when it went out of use and was demolished in the late 19th century or early 20th century. It is possible that the mound was reduced in size at this time. No evidence of medieval or post-medieval structures was revealed during the fieldwork. |
