Description
A number of archaeological deposits and features were identified during the watching brief on the excavation of 4 trenches.. The main concentration was in Trench 2 where probable Roman, medieval and post-medieval features were encountered. These included a post-medieval (16th-century) pit, below the concrete foundations of the public house and an interrupted slot, probably part of a structure, which may be Roman in date. Undated archaeological deposits were also identified in Trench 3 and an undated linear feature running parallel to Moulsham Street was recorded in Trench 4.
