Description

A watching brief on a topsoil strip, in advance of the construction of a second phase of sewage pipeline from the Sewage Treatment Works at Stonebridge, Barling Magna, Essex. This new pipeline ran eastward towards the Treatment Works at Kimberley Road, Little Wakering, Essex. The topsoil strip was approximately 5m wide and ran for approximately 1.35km. Approximately 0.3m of topsoil was removed from the brickearth subsoil. The final 250m was not monitored as the pipe trench was to be cut and laid at the same time, with no associated topsoil strip. No finds or features of archaeological significance were recorded.
