Abstract: |
An archaeological watching brief of geotechnical test pits was carried out at 15 Artillery Passage, Tower Hamlets, E1 7LJ. 15th century made ground was the lowest recorded deposit within all three test pits within the basement. This was brickearth in appearance and could alternatively be a sub soil horizon. Truncating the lowest recorded level are two rubbish pits one of 17th century date, the later being 19th century. A likely 19th century concrete footing cuts the brickearth layer to the west and a late pit truncates a 18th/19th century corbal footing to the north. All are sealed by a concrete slab. In the courtyard outside, made ground with a high proportion of building rubble, was sealed by the courtyard concrete slab. |
