Abstract: |
Two phases of archaeological work were undertaken on Densham Open Space, during the construction of a shaft as part of the Thames Water Flood Alleviation Scheme in West Ham. Two evaluation trenches were excavated in 2007, identifying deposits of an uncertain nature but of probable 15th and 16th century origin. Further work during 2009 identfied these as dump layers in a natural or artificial hollow, with late15th to late 16th waste deriving partly from a local tannery complex. |
