Abstract:
In August 2015 Archaeological Solutions Ltd (AS) carried out an archaeological evaluation at 9 London Road, Great Chesterford, Essex (NGR TL 50536 42512). The evaluation was undertaken in compliance with a planning condition attached to planning approval to demolish the existing building and construct two replacement dwellings (Planning Ref. UTT/14/1341), based on the advice of the Historic Environment Advisor of Essex County Council (HEA ECC). The site lies within the area of the Roman cemetery lining London road (EHER 4948, 4949) associated with the contemporary walled town at Great Chesterford which is a Scheduled Monument (SM 24871). The earlier Roman town was associated with a walled enclosure around the church. A second walled enclosure was noted to the south of Newmarket Road, thought to follow the northern churchyard wall. It is thought to be either a military fortification pre-dating the Roman town, or part of the additional defences constructed in the 4th century AD. Trial trenching at 5 London Road to the north has identified a possible Roman quarry (EHER 47068). An archaeological watching brief for an extension to the house immediately to the north-west of Number 9, proved negative (EHER 45213). In the event Trench 1 contained no archaeological features or finds. Trench 2 contained Ditches F1003 and F1008, and Flue F1005. The features contained Roman (generally early 2nd - 4th century) pottery, some CBM, animal bone and iron fragments. Residual prehistoric sparse struck flint was found, and also a residual prehistoric sherd of possible Bronze Age / Iron Age date was found within Roman Ditch F1003.
