Possible prehistoric round barrow and rectilinear enclosure on land at Romans Farm, Burnham-on-Crouch (EHER 83341)

A geophysical survey in 2024 recorded a potential round barrow and a small rectilinear enclosure, which may be associated with remains in the field to the south (EHER 81263-81265).

September 2024. Geophysical survey. The survey has identified a number of potential ditches, for the most part in the southern part of the site. These include traces of a potential prehistoric round barrow situated in the mideastern region and a relatively small rectilinear enclosure to the north-east of Romans Farm. These conceivably share contemporaneity with prehistoric remains that have been identified on land to the immediate south of the site (EHER 81263-81625). Stronger responses include those induced by two buried services, miscellaneous residual material associated with former field boundaries and service access points. Probable palaeochannels were recorded in the north-western part of the site. <1>
