Abstract:		 In September and October 2015 Archaeological Solutions (AS) carried out an archaeological excavation on land south of Dunmow Road, Great Hallingbury, Essex (NGR TL 52693 21332). The excavation was undertaken in compliance with a planning condition based on the advice of the Historic Environment Advisor of Essex County Council. It followed a trial trench evaluation. Dunmow Road follows the line of Roman Stane Street which ran E/W linking the settlements at Braughing and Colchester (HER 4697). Extensive multi-period occupation is known from Stansted Airport and from other sites along the line of Stane Street. Cropmarks are recorded close by the site. The important medieval site of Thremhall Priory lies close by to the north-east, and listed buildings are present in the vicinity of the site. The excavation recorded eight ditches, ten possible quarry pits, seven other pits, and a buried soil. Of these six ditches, ten quarry pits, three other pits, and the buried soil were medieval, two ditches were post-medieval or modern, and four pits and one ditch were undated. The results of the excavation accord well with the evaluation. During the medieval period the site appears to have been used for quarrying, mostly for the clay in the layer below the upper chalky material and not for the underlying sand. Also during the medieval boundary ditches were dug with the majority of the quarrying taking place to the north of a large ditch (F2087), aligned east-west and parallel to the road.
