Description

Archaeological monitoring and recording was undertaken during the construction of a short stretch of sea wall by the Anglian Water Authority, which ran from the SW corner of the Roman fort around the rear of the former coastguard cottage, to link up with the existing sea wall South of the cottage. No find or features of archaeological significance were encountered. NRHE data transfer: archaeological deposits were not disturbed.
