Undated probable settlement, proposed Bradwell B Nuclear Power Station site (EHER 81782)
Please read our guidance about the use of Essex Historic Environment Record data.
Summary
Geophysical survey in 2020 recorded linear anomalies forming fields/ enclosures throughout the survey area. Two areas where the pattern is clear enough to be confident of a probable (red) rather than a possible archaeological interpretation were located (see also EHER 81781). One of these was located in Field 25 where a smaller arrangement of enclosures is identified with a small circular enclosure located in the SW corner of a much larger rectangular.

Description
September 2020. Geophysical survey.
Across much of the survey area linear anomalies forming fields/ enclosures are identified although these are of uncertain date and are not recorded on historic mapping. Two areas where the pattern is clear enough to be confident of a probable (red) rather than a possible archaeological interpretation were located (see also EHER 81781). One of these was located in Field 25. Here, a smaller arrangement of enclosures is identified with a small circular enclosure located in the SW corner of a much larger rectangular. <1>
