Summary.
Archaeological monitoring was carried out at 8 Creffield Road, Colchester, Essex during groundworks for a new extension. Located to the south-east of the Roman walled town and within an area of known Roman burials, monitoring revealed a substantial depth of cultivation soil sealing a ditch/pit that was too deep to fully investigate.
