Abstract: |
An archaeological watching brief was carried out at 51-53 Butt Road, Colchester in advance of the construction of side and rear extensions. Despite being located close to Butt Road Roman cemetery no significant archaeological horizons were identified, with only modern features and landscaping/terracing recorded. A piece of human arm bone and a sherd of cut amphora were both recorded from modern contexts (L1). The human bone was probably from a disturbed Roman burial associated with Butt Road cemetery but the amphora is more representative of Roman domestic or industrial activity. |
