Abstract: |
Three trial-trenches were machine-excavated under the supervision of a CAT archaeologist. Trench T1 was cut through modern made ground (L3, c 0.36-0.38m thick) and accumulation (L4, c 0.12-0.14m thick) onto L2 (encountered at a depth of c 0.43-0.5m below current ground level). Trenches T2 and T3 were cut through modern topsoil (L1, c 0.17-0.45m thick) onto natural (L2). An archaeological evaluation (three trial-trenches) was carried out at Weston, Bannister Green, Felsted, Dunmow, Essex, in advance of the construction of three new dwellings. The site lies within the historic Bannister Green, near to a number of medieval moated sites and to the southwest of cropmarks indicating the presence of an enclosure and a trackway. Despite being located in an archaeologically-sensitive area only a medieval/post-medieval pit, modern pit and undated pit were uncovered. |
