Abstract:
The development site lies to the north of the old A120 which is on the line of the Roman road from Braughing to Colchester (Stane Street, EHER no 4698). To the north of evaluation area, evidence of prehistoric occupation and an extensive medieval field system have been identified during archaeological investigations at the Priors Green development site (EHER no 46298). The proposed development comprised the construction of two semi-detached houses on a plot of land which was formerly the back garden of 4 Hamilton Road. The development site was covered in a dark grey clayey-silt topsoil (L1). The topsoil overlaid a medium grey/brown silty-clay subsoil (L2). L2 overlaid a pale brown/orange boulder clay with some flint gravel (L3). A small sondage was excavated into L3 to confirm that it was the natural clay. No evidence for roadside settlements of Roman or medieval date were identified during the evaluation. The worked flints recovered are probably associated with the prehistoric occupation (Neolithic-Bronze Age) identified across the Priors Green development site to the north of the site.
