Abstract:		 In May and June 2011, Archaeological Solutions Ltd (AS) conducted an archaeological trial trench evaluation at The Priory, Church Road, Hatfield Peverel, Braintree, Essex (NGR TL 7970 1090). The evaluation was carried out in accordance with a brief issued by Essex County Council Historic Environment Team (ECC HEM, Teresa O'Connor) (dated 12/2010), and a specification compiled by AS (dated 12/2010). Hatfield Priory, a Scheduled Monument (SAM 165), was founded in the late 11th century and Dissolved in 1536 (EHER 6053). Much of the medieval priory was destroyed at this time or in the 18th century, but the late 12th century nave and central tower arch survived as the parish Church of St Andrew's which is a Grade II* listed building restored in the 19th and 20th centuries (EHER 29813 and EHER 6053). Burials have been found to the east and north of the church. In the Tudor period a large manor house was built in the area of the current church hall. It was pulled down in the 18th century to make way for Hatfield Priory House surviving remains include cellars, a well and a small floor area (EHER 6053). Hatfield Priory House located south of the church was begun c.1768 and is Grade II* listed building set in a Grade II Registered Park and Garden. Archaeological features were recorded in each trench, and the features comprise pits, ditches, post holes and a wall foundation. The dated features were recorded in Trenches 1 and 2 (Wall Foundation M1009, Extraction Pit F1010, Pit F1005 and Ditch F1026) and are late post-medieval. Only Ditch F1026 (Tr.2) contained pottery. The remaining late post-medieval features contained CBM, glass and an iron fragment. Only the foundation of Wall M1009 (Tr.1) survived. Undated features were recorded in all three trenches. Post Holes F1018, F1020, F1022 and F1024 may be contemporary and comprise a linear formation, but judgement is inhibited by the confines of the trench. The features are likely to relate to 19th-century gardening activity.
