Description
An archaeological evaluation consisting of 59 trial-trenches was carried out on land north of Clacton Road in advance of the construction of a new commercial and residential development. Cropmarks covered the development site, and recent archaeological investigations on fields immediately to the south of Clacton Road revealed evidence for Late Bronze Age/Early Iron Age monuments.
