Abstract:
In May 2016, April 2017 and June 2017, Archaeology South-East (a division of the Centre for Applied Archaeology, UCL) carried out a programme of historic building recording of two air-raid shelters on the site of the former Ekco Works, Prittlebrook Industrial Estate, Priory Crescent, Southend, SS2 6JX, prior to the proposed redevelopment of the site. This recording exercise forms a detailed survey of the most recently discovered air-raid shelters (Shelters 4 and 5) within the site to Historic England Level 3 standard. The structures form part of a wider group of shelters formerly located beneath the Ekco Works, which is now demolished. Three air-raid shelters have previously been recorded on the site, firstly by the Essex County Council Field Archaeology Unit (ECC FAU; now part of ASE) who produced a measured survey and historic building record to English Heritage Level 3 for Shelters 1 - 3, in 2008. An additional assessment was carried out by Archaeology South-East in 2014 in order to record the condition of the shelters and the degree of survival of interior fixtures and fittings since the initial recording exercise. As a result of the initial recording exercise, surviving fixtures and fittings were removed by Southend Museum for their preservation in advance of the shelters' proposed demolition / infilling.
