Trial trenching by Pre-Construct Archaeology at St. John's House, St John's Road, Epping, 2016 - EEX58974

Evaluation. No finds or features of archaeological significance were recorded. NRHE data transfer: Site code: ESJE16. An archaeological evaluation was undertaken by Pre-Construct Archaeology Ltd. (PCA) prior to the proposed redevelopment of St John's House, St John's Road, Epping, Essex, CM16 5DN. The fieldwork comprised the excavation of two evaluation trenches located within the footprint of the proposed development. The evaluation observed that the most recent underlying geological deposit to survive was sandy clay, consistent with the projected underlying geology of the Stanmore Gravel formation. The only potential for archaeological remains encountered was a single layer of relatively sterile disturbed natural, uncertain in date. Information from OASIS Online Form.
