Description
Site lies on the eastern edge of the site of the historic settlement of St Osyth, and on the western edge of the modern village. The site in the garden of No. 35 Clacton Road was overgrown with shrubs and a new house was proposed on the garden.
An evaluation trench revealed three post-medieval pits, a post medieval brick and tile foundation and a modern post-hole. The excavated features appear to derive from domestic activity associated with properties fronting onto Clacton Road. <1>
