Abstract

An archaeological evaluation was carried out at Zone F and I, Beaulieu, Chelmsford. The fieldwork took place between the 1 September 2015 and the 18 October 2015. A total of thirty eight trenches were excavated across three separate fields, within the proposed development area.
The evaluation recorded evidence for a Late Iron Age field system on north-east to south-west and east to west alignment located across two of the fields. To the east of the evaluation a Middle Iron Age enclosure ditch was located, possibly associated with a settlement immediately to the west.
The settlement area and later archaeological remains were identified during the evaluation and further investigated during the immediate excavation phase. Their description will be included in the excavation report.
