Summary. An archaeological evaluation by trial-trenching (two trenches) was undertaken at Roundwood, 48 Lexden Road, West Bergholt, Essex following the demolition of the existing property and prior to the construction of two new dwellings with garages, vehicular access and parking facilities. The site is located on an area of historic heathland and in the midst of a complex of cropmarks. Despite being located in an archaeologically-sensitive area, however, no archaeological remains were encountered.
