Description
During April 2005 Archaeological Solutions carried out an evaluation on land to the rear of 80-84 Newland Street, Witham. The principal archaeological potential on the site was for remains of medieval and post-medieval date, relating to backyard activity associated with properties fronting Newland Street, the focus of a 'new town' built by the Knights Templar in the early 13th century.
