Orsett
Orsett is a village and ecclesiastical parish located within Thurrock unitary district in Essex, England, situated around 5 km north-east of Grays. ==History== It has historically been a primarily agricultural community situated at the southern edge of the old ice age flood plain traversed by the river Mardyke. Orsett contains a ring and bailey earthwork known locally as Bishop Bonner's palace. On the gravel terrace, there is a neolithic causewayed enclosure discovered as a result of crop marks which showed on aerial photographs taken by Dr St Joseph of Cambridge University.〔DR Wilson, ''Air Photo Interpretation'' (Tempus, 2000)〕 It has three concentric ditches with a number of breaks or causeways. The enclosure was used as a burial ground by the Saxons and contained at least three barrows visible on the aerial photo. Orsett Heath in the south of the parish was formerly part of an extensive area of heathland that included Terrel's Heath.
