Abstract:		 Essex County Council Field Archaeology Unit monitored the excavation of geotechnical test pits at Hadleigh Country Park, Essex, undertaken to inform proposals for the construction of a new visitor centre as part of the London 2012 Olympic Mountain bike Venue legacy project. The archaeological monitoring of geotechnical works appears to have confirmed the presence of at least one large quarry pit on the site, presumably associated with clay extraction for brick-making at the nearby brickworks. Similar areas of ground disturbance were noted to the south of the present site, during the monitoring of groundworks associated with the construction of the Olympic Mountain Bike track, suggesting that extensive quarrying of clay deposits in the area has occurred across quite a wide area. No archaeological features were observed in the remaining test pits but it is more likely to be a reflection of the very small percentage of the site that was investigated, rather than a genuine absence of remains in the area as a whole.
