Watching Brief, 1999
Two post-medieval or modern field ditches and a small cut feature of indeterminate date and function were discovered during the construction of a new access road and operational area to the west and North West of the existing sewage treatment works at Jaywick (see 18315), no other archaeological features or finds were discovered. <3>
The double ditched trackway was not mapped as part of the NMP as the features were not visible on available aerial photography, but two small rectangular enclosures were visible on the NMR photography and were mapped as part of the 2009 NMP update <4-5>
