Abstract: |
An archaeological evaluation took place betwen the 24th and 26th of January within a warehouse to the rear opf 29 Balham High Road. This warehouse had previously been used as a storage area for an HSS Hire Shop. The evaluation revealed very little evidence of archaeological activity prior to the 19th century. One layer of made ground was tentatively ascribed to the post-medieval period due to the presence of a single sherd of 17th to 18th century pottery. This layer directly overlay a horizon of natural clay which sealed the River Terrace Gravels. Modern concrete formed the warehouse floor. |
