Abstract: |
An archaeological watching brief during ground works involving ground reduction and piling was carried out by PRO Archaeology Services in advance of the construction of a 7 storey building comprising of 7 residential units (Class C3) above a ground floor retail premise (Planning Ref: 10/AP/0836) at 199 Long Lane, Southwark, SE1 4PD (TQ 3305 7950). A total of four separate site visits were made during May and July 2011. The watching brief followed an archaeological evaluation undertaken by PRO Archaeology Services (January 2011) which recorded the remains of a medieval feature and post medieval building (PAS 2011). The earliest archaeological features recorded during the watching brief were possibly related to the post medieval building considered to be a tannery. The reduction did not exceed c. 0.90m (c. 2.60m AOD) from the previous ground level and was generally only c. 0.60m in depth (c. 2.90m AOD). The previously discovered medieval archaeological features were located at a depth of 2.2m beneath previous ground level (c. 1.34m AOD), not achieved during these excavations. The south eastern corner of the plot was occupied by a basement which would have destroyed any archaeological remains in this area. |
