8 Sun Street Waltham Abbey Essex

Abstract

On 28th July 2008 Oxford Archaeology carried out an archaeological watching brief at 8 Sun Street, Waltham Abbey, Essex, during the digging of three geotechnical pits associated with the construction of a two storey extension to the rear of the property. The pits revealed that the site was occupied by a recently back-filled cellar or cellars and that no archaeological remains were likely to survive within the 1m depth of the foundations of the proposed extension. Consequently no further monitoring was necessary during the digging of the foundations.
