Summary. Observation of groundworks for a replacement of a single storey extension were conducted as the development site is located within a small cluster of historic buildings, including five Grade II listed buildings. There is map evidence for a 19th-century well present at the site, and it is also within the northern boundary of the Boxted World War II American air base. Three layers and a possible modern brick wall were identified.
