Abstract:
In 1996-7 archaeological excavation took place ahead of refurbishments in the crypt of St Paul's Cathedral below the nave and west end. Little of the medieval building or its ancillaries were found. A tunnel on the E side of the SW tower, at crypt level, produced 77 moulded stones from the medieval building of which at least 45 came from the portico added to the W end by Inigo Jones in 1635-42. In the Wmost bay of the nave crypt details of the Wren construction site were found, including temporary drains and probably a mortar-mixing area. A separate trench for a drain in a passage E of the N transept found Roman pits, burials dated by C14 to the 9th century and architectural fragments probably from the Jones-period door on the N side of the nave.
