Description

NRHE data transfer: In June 1995, the Cambridge office of The Royal Commission on the Historical Monuments of England carried out an earthwork survey of an Iron Age hillfort, and later landscaping features associated with Audley End gardens, on the summit of Ring Hill, Littlebury, Essex. The survey was undertaken primarily as a training exercise for archaeology students from Cambridge University, and the site was chosen with this in mind. Ordnance Survey control was established using a Wild TC1610 theodolite, and the details of the earthworks were recorded at 1:1000 scale by conventional graphical methods. Limited architectural observations were made. A report and plan were produced to RCHME Level 3.
