Abstract: |
Sutton Archaeological Services (SAS) carried out an archaeological evaluation at Abbey Road, Barking, Essex from 9th April to 2nd May 2003. The evaluation revealed mainly concrete, fill deposits, alluvial and natural sand and gravel. Trench 1, which was situated behind a 19th dam, located tidal mud flats and a small channel that pre-dated the construction of the dam. The channel contained residual sherds of Roman, Medieval and Post-Medieval pottery. Trench 2 was positioned to locate the dam and a possible ditch in front of it. The dam and the ditch were found, with dumps of fill and industrial debris in the ditch and in front of the dam. A section through part of the dam showed it was constructed entirely of clay, but no dating evidence was recovered. |
