Abstract: |
In February 2017 Archaeological Solutions (AS) carried out archaeological monitoring and recording of land adjacent to New Folly, Bellmead, Ingatestone, Essex (NGR TQ 65018 99425; Figs. 1 and 2). The monitoring was commissioned by Marden Homes Limited and was undertaken in compliance with a planning condition attached to planning permission to construct a three storey building containing 10 residential flats and 4 three-storey dwellings with parking, access and landscaping (Brentwood Borough Council Planning Approval Ref.15/00008/FUL), based on the advice of the Historic Environment Advisor of Essex County Council (ECC HEA) The site lies within an area of archaeological potential within the medieval settlement area of Ingatestone to the rear of the historic High Street (Essex Historic Environment Record EHER 5376-7). Archaeological investigations in the vicinity have revealed archaeological remains. An evaluation undertaken in advance of the development of the adjacent doctors' surgery and access road revealed features of medieval and post-medieval date, which may likely extend into the current proposed development area (EHER 18041). An archaeological evaluation revealed a medieval (13th - 15th century) ditch (Trench 1 F1006) in the northern half of the site. A second ditch was recorded in the southern sector of the site (Trench 2 F1008). It contained a medieval (mid 12th - 14th century) pottery sherd which may be residual. A modern service trench was also present in Trench 2. The monitoring and recording of the ground reduction revealed a possible medieval ditch (F2007 = F1006 Trench 1), orientated north/south, and a slightly more substantial undated ditch (F2004), roughly parallel and five metres to the east. Ditch F2004 was completely truncated by a modern sewer pipe trench in the southern half of the open area. |
