Roman and later finds had been made over several years in this area. Three complete pots, report said to be Roman, were dug up from foundation trenches before World War II and another vessel was found nearby, some years later. The whereabouts of the pottery is not known. Coarse pottery was found more recently (in 1970) in the garden, also a thick bronze plate fragment with deeply incised grooves for decoration, of unknown purpose. A bronze 'follis', in poor condition, of Maximianus Herculius has also been found. Finds were to go Southend Museum. <2> <3>
