Summary. An archaeological evaluation of two trial-trenches was carried out at Maldon Hall Farm, Spital Road, Maldon, Essex in advance of the construction of three new dwellings. Despite being located next to a medieval manorial site and although previous archaeological work at Maldon Farm has revealed significant archaeological remains dating to the 1st century AD, this investigation instead revealed relatively limited archaeological remains. These dated to the 19th century and consisted of a ditch, a posthole and a culvert.
