Abstract:
An archaeological evaluation was undertaken by AOC Archaeology Group between the 3rd and 18th March 2008 at the site of 27 - 29 Imperial Way, Croydon . The aim of the evaluation was to assess the impact of the proposed residential redevelopment on any surviving archaeological remains. The evaluation comprised nine machine excavated trenches . Three trenches were recognised as containing archaeological features. Two features identified were associated with modern activity associated either with the former Croydon Airport or Ford Motor Works, with a further two features interpreted as naturally formed hollows. The evaluation trenches also showed that modern horizontal truncation of deposits had occurred in the eastern area of the site, while subsoil deposits were present in the western area up to a depth of 1.1m. Overall, a low density of archaeological features were encountered, all of which were deemed to be of limited significance. This, taken into account with the significant degree of truncation identified across the eastern side of the site, indicates a limited potential for further archaeological features to survive.
