Abstract:		 Following work in 2006, eight geotechnical test pits were monitored. These were located against the perimeter walls of the site. The six pits within 8 Moorgate revealed only modern concrete and made ground. One of the two pits within 17 Tokenhouse Yard contained fine silty sand beneath an undated silty clay deposit containing fragments of charcoal. This was overlain by a thick deposit of dark peaty clay (with inclusions of shell, organic material, and pottery of probable 17th century date) which probably represents an external dump or make-up layer possibly for the foundations of later buildings. This was sealed by a sandy gravel layer containing clay tobacco pipe stems which may also be associated with later construction. This was covered by modern concrete to the south and west, a granite block to the north and a late 19th-century brick buttress. The other pit contained a black peaty deposit overlain by modern concrete.
