Description

A series of field investigations, organised by R.L. Hall and C.P. Clarke (ECC FAU) and attended by members of the Essex County Council Archaeology Section (Field Archaeology Unit, ECC FAU) and Peter Murphy of English Heritage. These visits followed the preliminary survey by R.L. Hall (EEX38101) and initial field visit by C. Ingle in August 1991 (EEX38103) and were in preparation of a research design for the subsequent English Heritage funded project (EEX62388). The visits were for reconnaissance and included the removal of timber samples for radio-carbon dating.
