Summary. An archaeological evaluation (two trial-trenches) was carried out on land north of Mill Buildings, Wakes Colne Mills, Colchester Road, Wakes Colne, Essex in advance of groundworks associated with the redevelopment of the site. The coach house is a Grade II listed building associated with the mid 19th-century Wakes Colne Mill. Only a modern pit was uncovered, although the presence of asbestos precluded a full investigation of the site.
