Summary. An archaeological evaluation (two trial-trenches) was carried out on land adjacent to ‘Three Ways’, 74 The Causeway, Great Dunmow, Essex, in advance of the construction of a new dwelling. The development site lies close to a Roman road and to the south of a site where the buried remains of three square barrows and a circular barrow, possibly of Roman date, are located. Evaluation revealed a post-medieval pit and a ditch which produced a sherd of Roman pottery.
