Digital Archive from Archaeological Monitoring and Recording at Britannia Car Park, Britannia Way, Colchester, Essex, November 2024

This collection comprises images, survey drawings and project brief from an archaeological monitoring and recording at Britannia Car Park, Britannia Way, Colchester, Essex. Work was carried out by Colchester Archaeological Trust in November 2024. The work involved excavation of three 1 metre square trial-pits along the train station's northern wall. The trial-pits were located just outside of the precinct of St Botolph's Priory, with other archaeological remains, principally Roman, in the vicinity of the development site. However, all groundworks impacted on only modern (19th-20th century) remains and one undated layer at the base of trial-pit 1. The modern remains are associated with the industrial history of the site.
