Medieval ditches, land East of 'Langford Lee', Maldon Road, Langford (EHER 81003)

The majority of site features are of medieval date.

April 2015. Excavation and trial trenching. The majority of site features are of medieval date. Two ditches, perhaps not parallel enough to be considered a trackway, are the most prominent feature (dated to 13th-14th century). A third ditch is undated in the excavated area, it aligns well with a second ditch which also contains 13th to 14th century pottery. All three ditches may be part of the same field boundary. Apart from the field ditch, there is a cluster of medieval pits in the south centre of the site. These pits do not contain large quantities of medieval finds, so it is not certain that domestic occupation was nearby. The proximity to two medieval pits of four undated features on the northern site edge means the latter may be medieval. <1>
