LOFTS FARM, HEYBRIDGE, ESSEX. CARBONISED CEREALS AND CROP WEED; SEEDS

Author(s): P Murphy

The plant microfossils recovered during the excavations at this site in the winter of 1984-85 fall into 2 groups: samples of carbonised plant remains from Neolithic and late Bronze Age features at the area excavation of the enclosure LF 84; and samples of seeds, wood and other macrofossils preserved principally by waterlogging in the fill of the well LFP 840. These 2 groups of samples provide complementary information mainly on crops and crop processing and on the local environment, and will be considered in separate sections of this report.
