Extract

A Trench for an outfall sewer in Thorpe Hall Avenue, Southchurch, in 1929, followed by excavation in the adjoining marshland in 1930, disclosed a new lacustrine site associated with pottery of Hallstatt and later dates. Complete exposure was not possible then, but results of archaeological interest were obtained, which are summarized briefly here; full details and references are recorded elsewhere.
