Abstract: |
Archaeological open-area excavation following an from archaeological evaluation. The excavation was carried out as per the conditions of the brief and WSI. An archaeological excavation was carried out on land at Watch House Green, Felsted, Essex in advance of the construction of a residential development. The site lies adjacent to The Watch House, which has its origins in the 17th century, and is in the midst of a number of cropmark complexes. Excavation revealed: 1) a Late Iron Age/early Roman ditch and associated gullies; 2) an area of metalling with ditches, gullies and pits likely representing an agricultural landscape close to a Roman farmstead or villa dating from the late 2nd into the early/mid 4th century; and 3) a post-medieval field boundary ditch. |
