Watching brief by ECC Field Archaeology Unit at the site of a new car park, London Southend Airport, Rochford, 2006 - EEX54712

Archaeological monitoring of groundworks associated with the construction of a new car park and access road. The car park was the initial phase of a much larger development project involving the construction of a new terminal building, a multi-modal transport interchange and additional extensive parking facilities over a number of years. No finds or features of archaeological significance were recorded. The south-east corner of the monitored area had previously been evaluated in 1998 (see EEX53136) and archaeological material was noted during this investigation (see EHER 18227). Further monitoring took place in 2010 under the same site code, see EEX56274.
