CAT Report 977: summary

by Laura Pooley (with contributions from -)

Summary

An archaeological evaluation by trial-trenching was carried out in advance of the construction of twelve new dwellings on land at Mersea Fleet Way, Chelmer Road, Braintree, Essex. Despite being located within the historic farm complex of Stubbs Farm (19th century), only one post-medieval pit was excavated and that may be associated with the old farm boundary. The remaining layers and features were all of modern date.
