Abstract: |
In November 2017 Archaeological Solutions Ltd (AS) carried out an archaeological trial trench evaluation on land adjoining Yew Tree House, Dunmow Road, Fyfield, Essex CM5 0RH (NGR TL 56998 06955; Figs.1 - 2). The evaluation was carried out to provide for the initial requirements of a planning condition attached to planning approval for the development of two new detached dwellings on the site with associated garages, access and ancillary works (Epping Forest Council Planning Ref. EPF/0201/15). The evaluation was required based on the advice of an Historic Environment Advisor of Essex County Council who required a programme of archaeological work. The Essex Historic Environment Record (EHER) notes that the site lies within an area of archaeological potential within the historic core of Fyfield. Yew Tree House adjacent is a Grade II listed timber-framed house of 16th/17th century date (EHER 32953). The site thus had a potential for the presence of buried remains of medieval and post-medieval date. The evaluation revealed late post-medieval / modern features comprising Ditch F1007 (Trench 2) and Pits F1009 and F1011 (Trench 3). Pit F1011 contained a ?struck flint of ?Neolithic date. Modern Ditch F1007 contained 4 small abraded residual sherds of late medieval pottery. |
