Abstract: |
Archaeological evaluation carried out at rear of 164 Bury Street, Enfield, prior to residential redevelopment. Consisted of two trenches measuring 2 x 8m and 2 x 12m respectively. Site had potential for prehistoric and Roman archaeology, remained open land up to 19th century. Both trenches excavated to natural Enfield Silt ( silty/sandy clay). Trench 1 contained a reworked subsoil layer representing cultivation of land for agricultural purposes. This layer contained 19th century building materials (brick/tile), but no earlier material. Trench 2 contained a modern pit cut into natural at east end. Overlying natural was a subsoil cultivation layer similar to that of Trench 1, also containing 19th century material. Above this layer was a disturbed layer of dumped material containing 19th century and later finds, which had been reworked or ploughed out. |
