Abstract:
Archaeology South-East (ASE) was commissioned by Vantage Planning Ltd on behalf of Stobarts Rail to conduct an archaeological evaluation by trial trenching at London Southend Airport, Rochford. The evaluation consisted of twenty-six evaluation trenches spread over the 3.7ha development area. Archaeological features were recorded in nine out of the 26 trenches, all located in the northern part of the site and mainly dating to the Late Iron Age to Early Roman transition period. The features comprise a probable corner of an enclosure ditch; gullies, perhaps for drainage; other ditches that may have been field boundaries; postholes and stakeholes that may have formed structures, as well as pits probably for rubbish disposal. The finds contained within the fills of these features -pottery, animal bone, oyster shell, charcoal, a loomweight and fragments of daub - suggest occupation on or near the site.No burials were revealed, however a base of a pedestal jar was found in the subsoil which may have been redeposited from a cremation burial. Two probable field boundary ditches in Trench 5 date contain pottery of Roman date and are probably versions of the same field boundary which was a recut of an earlier (Late Iron Age/Early Roman) ditch. These features demonstrate that there was continuity in landuse from the Late Iron Age until at least the mid 2nd century AD. There then appeared to be a hiatus of activity; the only later features being thin on the ground and dated to the medieval or post-medieval period
