Description
An archaeological investigation was carried out on land at Stock Chase, Heybridge before the construction of two new houses. Two evaluation trenches (1 and 2), 8m long by 1.2m wide, were excavated. Machining was undertaken under the supervision of an archaeologist using a mini-excavator fitted with a flat-bladed bucket, although much of the modern overburden had to be loosened with a toothed bucket.
