Abstract:		 Headland Archaeology (UK) Ltd undertook a second geophysical (magnetometer) survey, covering approximately 6 hectares, to provide supplementary information on the archaeological potential of land that will be impacted by the proposed scheme to construct a new junction north of Junction 7 on the M11, north-east of Harlow, Essex. The survey has identified a circular anomaly interpreted as a round barrow and other linear and discrete anomalies that may also be of archaeological origin, possibly indicative of ditches which may form part of an early field system. The results and interpretation of the initial survey have been re-assessed in light of the current results and this has allowed for a slight revision of the overall interpretation; both data sets and interpretations are presented in this report. Overall the surveys have identified two areas of archaeological potential. The first is to the centre of the new link road which will connect the M11 with Sheering Road (Areas 5, 11 and 14). Two round barrows are clearly identified together with several discontinuous ditch type anomalies which appear to respect the barrows. This area is assessed to be of moderate to high potential. The second is to the east of the M11, in Area 15 and Area 16, where several discontinuous linear anomalies and pit type responses may locate another area of archaeological activity. However, no clear archaeological pattern is evident and these linear anomalies might equally plausibly be interpreted as the result of recent cultivation or drainage. This area is assessed as of moderate potential. Elsewhere across the majority of the scheme footprint the archaeological potential is assessed as low.
