Summary. Archaeological monitoring was carried out at the East Gatehouse, St Osyth Priory, The Bury, St Osyth, Essex during groundworks for creation of a new floor. The site is located within the East Gatehouse of St Osyth Priory, a medieval priory that was founded in the 12th century. The works partially exposed a modern brick floor, which comprised both square and rectangular floor bricks, likely associated with the building’s domestic conversion in the 20th century.
