Archaeological priority area: Line of the Roman road from London to Colchester

Council record ↗
National infrastructure project about 12 m away: M25 junction 28 improvements
The site is about 12 m from the project boundary. Highway, decided. The project page says whether consent was granted. Also within 2 km: Lower Thames Crossing (decided, about 1153 m).
Nationally significant infrastructure projects (power stations, electricity lines, pipelines, major roads and railways, harbours, airports and reservoirs) are consented by a Secretary of State under the Planning Act 2008, after an examination by the Planning Inspectorate, rather than by the council. The boundary is the one the Inspectorate consults on and can change as the scheme does. Projects are shown within 2 km of the site.
