A Roman saltern 750m north west of Maydays Farm is a scheduled ancient monument located in Essex representing evidence of salt production during the Roman period. The site comprises the archaeological remains of salt-working structures typical of Romano-British coastal and estuarine industries, where brine was evaporated to produce salt for preservation and trade. Such installations were economically significant to the Roman province, supplying salt for food preservation and salting of fish and meat. The monument contributes to understanding the extent and organisation of Romano-British industrial production in Essex during the Roman occupation of Britain.
