Change log

Abstract

The Cambridge Archaeological Unit (CAU) undertook the archaeological monitoring of the construction of a main water pipeline from Great Saling to Rayne by Anglia Water and its agents between the 22nd September 2008 and 13th March 2009. The pipeline commenced at Great Saling and traversed the upland glacial plateau of North Essex, at present a largely open arable landscape. The pipeline terminated at Rayne in close proximity to the A120 Stane Street a major Roman road connecting Colchester to St Albans. The monitoring produced evidence of activity on the upland from the Neolithic period to the Late Iron Age.
