Excavations at North Shoebury: Settlement and Economy in South-East Essex 1500 BC - AD 1500
John Wymer, Nigel R. Brown
With contributions from D. Andrews, P. R. Barford, Ruth S. Leary, D. G. Buckley, Janet D. Henderson, Andrew Jones, Marsha A. Levine, H. Major, P. Murphy, R. M. Reece, P. Ryan, Isobel Thompson, Susan Tyler, H. Walker and N. Wickenden.
Excavation at North Shoebury in the 1970s and 80s spread across about 18 hectares, an area only exceeded in southern Essex by the excavations at Mucking. Occupation was continuous, though shifting, from the Bronze Age through to the Saxon period. An Early Medieval manorial enclosure close to the church formed the focus of a dispersed settlement set originally in open fields. Foundations of a Tudor brick built house were also investigated. This volume provides the first major account of the archaeology of south-east Essex.
