Abstract: |
The Museum of London Archaeology Service and Pre-Construct Archaeology (MoLAS-PCA) were commissioned by the Olympic Delivery Authority to analyse and record six road bridges which spanned waterways and railways in the Lower Lea Valley. The bridges were to be demolished and rebuilt and the archaeological investigation and a subsequent report were required as a condition of planning consent for the redevelopment. The investigation comprised measured survey and photography of structures and their setting. The six bridges that were recorded were as follows. The Eastway Road Bridge carried the Eastway over the Hackney Cut of the Lea Navigation. The Bridgewater Road Concrete Bridge spanned the Waterworks River and connected a trading estate with Warton Road. Waterden Road Bridge spanned the railway line between Hackney and Stratford. The White Post Lane Bridge carried a road that dates back to at least the mid-18th century over the Hackney Cut of the Lea Navigation. Temple Mills Lane Bridge crossed the railway line from Cambridge to Stratford and the Angel Lane Bridge also carried an early street, one of the main routes into Stratford from the north, over a railway line. |
