Abstract:		 Excavation of an area of 15 x 17m and subsequent monitoring of groundworks waqs carried out following an earlier trial-trenching evaluation by Compass Archaeology for which no report was issued. The excavation recorded the front and east wing of a large brick house fronting onto St Mary's Lane, built in the late 16th/17th centuries. The house was built around a courtyard, with a second yard area to the rear. A culvert ran beneth the front range. Part of the east wing was rebuilt, probably in the mid-17th century, and at this time a crushed brick levelling was laid down to make good an area of wet ground. The house continued to be occupied into the 18th century, but was demolished and robbed to make way for its successor, a Georgian house completed in 1775 and demolished in 1924. Only the front of the 1775 house and a culvert to its east were recorded, and its remains are preserved beneath a garden to the rear of the modern development. The stable-block and coach-house of the 1775 house, known as The Clockhouse, survives to the east of site and is a listed building. No evidence of occupation has been recorded that is related to the probably medieval moated enclosure to the rear of the site. Documentary evidence suggests the late 16th/17th-century house was the residence of the Lathams of the City of London, while the 1775 house was built by Sir James Esdaile, mayor of London in 1766.
