Abstract:
In August 2014 Archaeological Solutions Limited (AS) carried out an archaeological evaluation of land adjacent to Walton Hall Farm, Linford, Stanford-le-Hope, Essex (NGR TQ 67689 80728; Figs. 1 -2). The evaluation was undertaken on behalf of Ingrebourne Valley Ltd. It was carried out in compliance with a requirement of Essex County Council Minerals Department, as advised by Essex County Council Historic Environment Advisor (ECC HEA), prior to a determination of a planning application for mineral extraction on the site. The site has already been the subject of an archaeological desk-based assessment/walkover survey assessing archaeology aspects (Thompson 2014), and geophysical survey (Prestidge 2014). Forty trial trenches were excavated. The majority (20 out of 35) of the recorded features were linears (ditches or gullies). Pits (6), hollows (2), post holes (5), a layer and a ?ring ditch were also recorded. Just under half of the features (16) were undated. When dated the features were principally Late Bronze Age. A Roman sherd (Ditch F1074 Tr.17) and a medieval sherd (Layer L1036 (Tr.40) were found abd Ditch F1047 (Tr.5) was post-medieval. Finds were sparse with between 1 - 5 sherds being found per feature and fewer struck flint. Larger assemblages were contained in Pit F1006 (Tr.34; 85/2034g), Ditch F1049 (Tr.8; 6/12g), Ditch F1065 (Tr.12; 7/27g) and Pit F1067 (Tr.17; 22/121g). Just over half (24) of the trial trenches contained no archaeological features or finds, and it is noticeable that the palimpsest of archaeological features immediately north-west of the site do not continue down the slope. The trenches did reflect the geophysical anomalies, for example, the ditch in Trench 8, the ring ditch in Trench 8, the trackway in Trenches 10 and 11, and the ditches in Trench 40. Conversely a scatter of features were not recorded in Trenches 22 and 24.
