Abstract: |
An archaeological watching brief was conducted at 208 Pampisford Road in the London Borough of Croydon during groundworks for a mixed housing development. The watching brief was commissioned by Richard Meager of CgMs Consulting on behalf of Green Acre Homes Limited and occurred between the 14th June and 6th July 2007. Natural chalk limestone was recorded across the site, sealed in places by in situ subsoil and topsoil. However these overlying soils were absent in parts of the site where the previous early 20th century residential buildings were located. These soils were also absent around the area of two east-west aligned terraces which cut across the site. It is thought that these also date to around the early 20th century and form part of garden landscaping, the northernmost of which probably divides property 208 from 210 whilst the southernmost probably defines the original southern boundary of property 208, which was subsequently expanded. |
