Summary

Archaeological monitoring and recording was carried out at Heybridge Swifts Football Club, Scraley Road, Heybridge, Essex, during groundworks for the construction of an artificial grass football pitch. The site is located within an area of dense linear and discrete cropmarks. Twentynine features were uncovered, two of which produced Bronze Age pottery sherds. Only 11% percent of the excavation area reached the natural geology, consequently no cropmarks could be identified.
