Abstract: |
Archaeology South-East (ASE), the contracting division of the Centre for Applied Archaeology (CAA), Institute of Archaeology (IoA), University College London (UCL) was commissioned by CgMs to conduct an archaeological evaluation by trial trenching at a piece of land on St Edmunds Lane, Great Dumnow, Essex. The evaluation was carried out in advance of the construction of a residential development. Nine evaluation trenches were excavated, covering 1.8ha development area, in accordance with an agreed Written Scheme of Investigation for the work. The site was located within an arable field occupying a south-eastern facing slope and overlooking a tributary of the River Chelmer. Archaeological features were limited to two of the trenches, both situated at the top of the hill and near to St Edmunds Lane. These consisted of a recently filled in probable pond, two post-medieval or later shallow pits and an undated gully. The features were consistent with the site's use for agriculture and are not considered to be of any particular research interest. |
