Summary.
An archaeological evaluation (one trial-trench) was carried out at Chelmer Cottage, North Hill, Little
Baddow, Essex, in advance of the construction of a swimming pool in the garden of the property. The
development site lies near to the medieval St Mary’s Church and amid numerous cropmark complexes
indicating the presence of archaeological remains which are likely prehistoric in date. Despite lying in
an archaeologically sensitive area, no archaeological remains were encountered during the
evaluation.
