Summary. An evaluation was carried out in February 2004 on a plot of land to the rear of 16 Seaview Road, Brightlingsea, Essex. The three trenches did not produce any features or finds of archaeological significance. A linear feature, possibly an old field boundary of post-medieval date, was discovered, as well as two undated cut features. Several trees have been recently felled on the site which have left their mark as tree bowls and disturbance. The absence of features and significant finds in the topsoil indicate that the site is devoid of significant archaeological remains.
