Description
A field survey was carried out by RCHME at the request of Essex County Council. The buildings were investigated, and photographed using a medium format camera; in some cases internal inspection was not possible. A site plan was produced from a Total Station survey, collated with Ordnance Survey map evidence, and incorporates archaeological observation of earthwork and other evidence. In addition to field survey, limited documentary research was carried out.
NRHE data transfer:
In April 1997, RCHME Cambridge Office's Archaeology and Emergency Recording Sections carried out an analytical survey of the well preserved First World War airfield at Stow Maries, near the village of the same name, in the district of Maldon, Essex. The survey followed a request from Essex County Council, in the light of the exceptional preservation of the complex and increasing damage to the buildings through vandalism etc. The Archaeology Section team recorded the overall site plan at 1:500 scale, mostly by Total Station but with additional detail supplied by conventional graphical methods. The Emergency Recording team carried out more detailed written recording work, together with extensive photography. The plan and report are held in the Archive.
